Topic for Day 9: Servanthood
"Love is patient..."
1 Corinthians 13:4-8 (New International Version)
A Week of Patience:
We continue our week of patience with a focus on the first
three words of 1 Corinthians 13:4-8,
"Love is patient..." (New International Version)
This is the week we focus on being patient with our spouse.
Question for Reflection:
How can I be of service to my spouse everyday--
especially with tasks I don't wanna do?
The Patience to Serve:
Patience can often involve doing something we know
we CAN do, but DON'T feel like doing.
This may be the case with your spouse.
Homework:
Find something you can do for your spouse to
lighten their load today.
I like to do things for my wife without her
noticing so that I don't have to take credit
for it.
Word of advice from someone who learned an
expensive lesson once--pick something that you
can't mess up.
As for my lesson in servanthood gone wrong, let's
just say that the movie version would have been
called, "Honey, I Shrank A Buncha Your Delicate
Clothes." : )

Have a blessed, service filled day, everybody! : )
