True Love Does No Harm

 

The long Valentine’s weekend inspired today’s constructive thought.

 

True love isn’t measured in one day or even one weekend.

Proverbs 31:12 (NIV)
She [the noble wife] brings him [her husband] good,
not harm,
all the days of her life.

True love does my loved one no harm — every single day. Love isn’t being a doormat and putting up with hurtful behavior. It involves constructive conversations, problem-solving and healthy boundaries. It changes both partners for the better.

 

Good morning, Lord. A noble spouse brings good and not harm to their relationship every single day. I miss the mark. I nag, I pout, I say mean things. Teach me to love like You do, with grace and mercy. Grant me the wisdom to know where to draw the line, and when and how to speak. Show me how to forgive as I have been forgiven.
