When is the hardest time of the day for you to mea When is the hardest time of the day for you to measure or weigh your words? Day 5 #DoingLentTogether
While the tongue can't be tamed completely, we can While the tongue can't be tamed completely, we can seek to temper it. James 3:8 What are some ways you can put into practice today's "praise over put-downs" challenge? Day 4 #DoingLentTogether **Reminder, we will not have posts on Sundays so we'll be back on Monday with Day 5.

Hey you. Yes, you. The one scrolling through all t Hey you. Yes, you. The one scrolling through all the posts of seemingly blissful people on their Valentineโ€™s Day dates. Or showing off their new jewelry. Or that breathtaking bouquet of flowers they got from their significant other. Here is a little reminder that you are loved. Completely. Thoroughly. Without hesitation. Entirely unconditionally. God sees you. He loves you. And besides, take it from someone whoโ€™s been married for over three decades, a spouse does not complete you. A spouse cannot satisfy your deepest desires or your need for belonging. Only God can do that. There are millions of married people who feel horribly alone. Donโ€™t longingly wish for someone elseโ€™s life. Embrace the life you have been given. It can be a glorious adventure, if only you will allow God to take you on it. And it all starts with knowing that the only unfailing true love you will ever know is from the Lord. You. Are. Loved. Donโ€™t ever forget it. (And I think youโ€™re pretty special, too.) โ€œโ€œI have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.โ€ ๐Ÿ’•Jeremiah 31:3
