Dare #6 - Love Mini-Dares

So this month we have let those who love us know that because they do, they have made a huge difference in our lives. Who did you tell?

Then, during Valentines' week we made and gave hearts of encouragement to others. What did that look like for you?

Since we are focussing on love for the month of February, I have put together another couple of mini-dares for you to combine as Dare #6. Pick and choose or do them all. Remembering that the Good Book tells us: And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. (1 Corinthians 13:13)

Dares: 
i) Look beyond your immediate family and friends, make a list of the ways you could show love to 'others'...now put one into action every day. 

ii) Make a love jar....get your husband or other family members to write what makes them feel loved on pieces of paper and put them in the jar. Then draw one out every second day and bless that person with the loving action they would like.

iii) The Bible's love passage in 1 Corinthians 13  is world famous...and a challenge to do. Read it, memorise it, live it!

iv) Post an encouragement to love every day on Facebook this week....what the world needs now is  LOVE sweet Love. Find images, quotes, verses, poems that will encourage those who read to put love into action and post them. (Make sure you acknowledge where you got them from...give credit where credit is due:)

v) Speaking of love in action, give to a charity to end the month. $$ to one of the organisations that endeavour to show love to the unlovely (those with leprosy, fistula problems, in jail, living in slums, etc...). Or goods/food donations to local charities. It doesn't matter if your gift is $5 worth or $500 worth, just give out of a heart to show love and kindness to others.

The LORD is merciful and compassionate, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love. Psalm 145:8 (so should we be)
