Be warmed and filled
We are called to love like the Creator loved which is to say that we should be faithful, present, and sacrificial. Our goal should be to give of our time, our emotions (in the form of empathy), our resources, and more.
Loving Intensely but with Boundaries- One artist’s thoughts
Most of us want to be loved by someone. Because of this, we often put up with things we don’t like. We settle. We overlook it when our partner is dismissive of our needs, doesn’t have time for us, won’t make us a priority, or even when they are abusive. We do this because, sometimes, it’s beautiful.
