The Love Dare - Day 1

    Yesterday, as I was browsing the SmartParenting (SP) forum, I read about the The Love Dare book that was supposed to be the companion to the movie Fireproof. I have been planning to watch the movie with Jovel for months but yesterday was the first time that I'd heard about the book.

   Upon searching the Internet I found out that the main characters in the movie Fireproof, tried to rescue their marriage using the The Love Dare Book as a guide. Apparently, the book is a daily devotional guide for couples who would like to "fireproof" their marriages.


   I'm currently reading it on Google Books and I've decided to take on the 40-day dare.

    Married or not, all of us can think of one relationship in our life that needs 'fireproofing' - be it with our parents, siblings, co-workers or friends. I invite you to take the challenge. Today is Day 1.


The Love Dare - Day 1: Love is Patient

    "The first part of this dare is fairly simple. Although love is communicated in a number of ways, our words often reflect the condition of the our heart. For the next day, resolve to demonstrate patience and to say nothing negative to your spouse at all. If temptation arises, choose not to say anything at all. It's better to hold your tongue than to say something you'll regret."

   See you on Day 2.
