LOVE DARE - DAY 6

Love is not irritable.

Are you a calming breeze or a storm waiting to happen?


Key reasons people are irritable:
Stress, Selfishness, Lust, Bitterness, Greed and Pride

Life is a marathon, not a sprint. Balance, prioritize and pace yourself.
Some people are like lemons: when life squeezes them, they pour out a sour response. Some are more like peaches: when the pressure is on, the result is still sweet.

Challenge for Day 6 is to choose today to react to tough circumstances in your family in loving ways instead of with irritation. Begin by making a list of areas where you need to add margin to your schedule. Then list any wrong motivations that you need to release from your life.

Interesting challenge.

Pride - If I say I am not prideful, does that mean I do? I hope I do not come off arrogant.

Stress - I have a lot of stress

Selfishness - I do not have a problem with this.

Lust - I am too old for lust.

Greed - No problem there

I will watch my actions regarding stess and will try br happy.
