Default Love Is Otherness

Love should not be reserved or shut into a single day. Those who
are in relationships or who are married should find ways to love each
other on a daily basis. You can have Valentine's Day, everyday!

Real love will not attempt to manipulate for self centered motivations
or gratifications. Love will consider the needs of others and act with
intention to fulfill those emotional needs. This is referred to as "otherness".
If your partnership is struggling in some manner, consider your otherness mindset.

Men and women have different affectional needs, their desires are not the
same. Men, find out what your female partners love languages are and then
love them in that context. Romance is a form of love in which you can, in
some manner, incorporate into your daily lives.

In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies.
He who loves his wife loves himself. Ephesians 5:28

However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and
the wife must respect her husband. Ephesians 5:33

Women to love your husband is to respect him. Yes you want him to do things
for you that shows his thoughtfulness and sometimes you may be expecting
him to do things that he does not do and you may become disappointed. Avoid
setting yourself up for this, expectations are windows to disappointment. Encourage
him by communicating to him in ways you know he will understand. Try to motivate
him with love, use words of affirmation, love builds up. When two people are being
considerate of each other they open the streams in which love can flow.

LOVE is patient and kind;
LOVE is not jealous or boastful;
it is not arrogant or rude.
LOVE does not insist on its own way;
it is not irritable or resentful;
it does not rejoice at wrong,
but rejoices in the right.
LOVE bears all things, believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all things.
LOVE never ends …
1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Consider how you might integrate the following into your relationship:

Depend on one another.
Be devoted to one another.
Wash one anothers feet.
Rejoice with one another.
Weep with one another.
Live in harmony with one another.
Dont Judge one another.
Accept one another.
Admonish one another.
Greet one another.
Wait for one another.
Care for one another.
Serve one another.
Be kind to one another.
Forgive one another.
Be compassonate toward one another.
Encourage one another.
Submit to one another.
Bear with one another.
Stimulate one another.
Offer hospitality to one another.
Minister spiritual gifts to one another.
Be clothed in humility toward one another.
Dont slander one another.
Dont grumble against one another.
Confess your sins to one another.
Pray for one another.
Fellowship with one another.
Dont be puffed up against one another.
Carry one anothers burdens.
Prefer one another.
Comfort one another.
Love one another.



For the couples that pray together, Only 1 in 10,000 marriages end in divorce.
But it's 1 in 2 for those who don't pray.

Almighty God in heaven, I know that I am a sinner who deserves to be punished in hell for
all the sins I have committed in my life. Lord, I know that there is no way I can enter into
your Infinitely Holy presence in heaven only by being a good person. If goodness could save
me from hell, then Jesus Christ died in vain as my Substitute for my sins. Almighty God,
please FORGIVE me all my sins I have committed up to this very moment.  Lord Jesus
wash me clean in your Sin-cleansing Blood that was shed on the Cross of Calvary, and
ENTER into my HEART and LIFE as my Personal Lord and Savior. Help me God to live my
life to please you from this moment on. Thank you Lord Jesus for entering into my HEART
and Life. In the name of Jesus Christ Amen.

Yet those who wait for the Lord will gain new strength; They will mount up with the wings of
eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary. Isaiah 40:12
