LOVE DARE - DAY 12

Love lets the other win.

Some things are worth standing up for and protecting. Our priorities, morals, obedience to God, etc.. but too often is debating over the piddling things, like the color of a wall, choice of restaurant, etc...

Are you willing to bend to demonstrate love to your spouse or are you refusing to give in because of pride?

The wise and loving thing to do is to start approaching your disagreements with a willingness to not always insist on your own way.

Challenge for day 12 is to demonstrate love by willingly choosing to give in to an area of disagreement between you and your spouse. Tell them you are putting their preference first.
