“Let love be genuine”
I am starting my blog post again, I stopped for a while after I returned from India but would like to start up again to sharpen my writing skills.
Something I have been thinking about lately, we are loving others when we put their needs before our own and looking out for what is in their best interest. I really like this definition of love "unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of another"
Serving others willingly not because we have to but because we love them serving with Joy. I made a list of ways I could love my roommate this semester and do it with sincerity of heart. Not because I have to but because I want to.
- Keep things clean (I know she does not like things to be cluttered so I hope in this way I can show her I love her)
- Respect her, be willing to understand where she is coming from even when I disagree, be considerate.
- Listen, Really listen.
- Being willing to put her needs before my own
- Be Honest
- Be Humble
I hope this semester I can come up with new ways to show others I genuinely care about them and let Christ’s love flow through me in that way.
