Day 2

Day 2: I gave my wife a full body massage. One of her favorite activities. It was night and not as long as I intended to give, but she was very thankful. I found myself struggling today to remain positive and to keep my words uplifting. In the end I was able to not say negative things to her and still deal with some tough topics around home. What I found out about love today is that I was eager to perform my act of service for her. I was actually excited to have the time to focus on giving to her. Since I had the activity planned out, I made sure I had a scheduled time for it to occur. This greatly helped the atmosphere of the night and gave her something to love forward to. I did appreciate from the reading the passage about speaking truth in love. This is something that Kendra often preaches, but I don’t do a great job with. Now I can give a frame of reference when I need to speak in love….find a way to give to her!
