Love Dare

This week I began to take the "Love Dare" challenge after seeing the movie "Fireproof". I purchased the book and put it on my stack of books to read. Well this week I started it and it has proven to be a challenge for me in all aspects of my life. The dare is to help the reader strengthened their relationship with their spouse by using Biblical principles. Instead of helping with my relationship with my spouse it has proven to be something that I have used to help me improve my relationship with my coworkers and friends. The dare is basically broken down into days and the book is comprised of a 40 day challenge. I started this book on Monday. Today is Friday and I am still on day one. Yes, DAY ONE! Only today did I put a check by day one to say that I had completed the easiest dare in the book! 39 more dares to go. It's different when you are coaching others through their weaknesses and difficult seasons. So, so different and difficult when you face yourself and find you can be pretty ugly. Not only did I see myself in the mirror but I also got a good glimpse of how others see me. Talk about wanting to have some invisible moments. This week I had a few. Talk about growth moments.
