"Job Description"
Scripture Reading:
1 John 3:11 (HCSBO) This is the message you have heard from the beginning; we should love one another.
Devotion And Meditation:
People
of every nation, tribe, and tongue have it in common-everyone is
longing to be loved. It's inbred, God-given, lifelong, and deeply
felt. "Would someone please love me?" is the unspoken cry from
billboards, television shows, magazines, and T-shirts. We work
constantly to get others to notice our worth and validate us with their
attention. We will even give ourselves to someone with hopes of
receiving love in return. But ironically, people rarely take their
focus off themselves so they can meet this need in others. Selfishly,
we may even overlook our spouse. But they need it just the same.
Love, however, is your primary responsibility in marriage. Did you not vow to a lifelong love at the altar? Are you not the one God has privileged to fill your mate's love tank? And remember this: when your spouse deserves your love the least, that is when they need it the most. No one on earth is more strategically positioned, commanded, and called on to love your spouse than you are. Perhaps today, your prayer should include a request , so the Lord will show you how to love your spouse in ways that meet their needs.
