So I stopped by Lifeway Christian Stores today and bought these "Love Dare Cards".
I initially wasn't going to buy them, until I asked the girl behind the register if I could open one to read a couple of cards. She politely said "Sure!" So I did.
The very first card... "Dare 1" caught my attention.
We're all in relationships, wether intimate or not, I thought this would be good enough to share with everyday people living everyday ordinary lives.
Dare 1:
The first part of this dare is simple. Although love is communicated in a number of ways, our words often reflect the condition of our heart. For the next day, resolve to demonstrate patience and to say nothing negative to your spouse at all. If the temptation arises, choose not to say anything. It's better to hold your tongue than to say something you'll regret.
"The Love Dare"
I second that. Tomorrow is my day 1, dare 1. ;)
This is from a girl with expertise in regretting words that have been spoken, so trust me please when I say... take this little bit of advise, and cherish it with your entire heart.

- This story is about a girl that loves LOVE! Where would we be without it? I love Jesus. I love Dillon. I love dancing. I love the stars. I love singing. I love makeup & stilettos. I love fashion. I love to cook. I love photography. I love cycling, running, swimming, hiking, checking facebook friend status updates, jumping on the trampoline, going to church,I love connecting with other women who have encountered pain as I had, volunteering, watching movies, planting flowers, drawing, sewing, scrapbooking, Versa Spa, Vita-C Serum, Black finger nail polish, perfecting things. I love being totally RaNdOm! TRAVELING!!! I love sinners. I love nonbelievers. Oh the joy it brings inside this heart of mine the reaction they're going to have when they see Jesus face to face! What a party we'll have!
Julie, I hope you have a fulfilling & Christ magnifying 40 days as you try to complete the love dare. It will be hard and discouraging at times but just remember to lean on God's strength not your own. God will fight the battle for you if you let Him. I hope the following verses are an encouragement to you sweet girl! I love ya!
