Your wife is a tool that He will use. Build the relationship with Christ without Him you only can love as the world taught you and you see where that gets us. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Christ will mold you to be a testimony in His image, and yes it will get harder before it gets easier, but those humble moments are very important. Trust Christ, and learn from each moment. &lt;/p&gt; </description></item><item><title>Forum Post: Re: Day 5: Love is not rude....then I guess he doesn't love me....</title><link>http://lovedarestories.com/5/f/233/p/36331/52549.aspx#52549</link><pubDate>Sat, 10 Nov 2012 12:44:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">0d90fb76-2118-4378-9ca3-da2f6e729b36:52549</guid><dc:creator>Sean</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Honestly I do not know how to respond to this.

When you do not take time to think about it and seek Chirsts guidance, you are still in control.

No it is never good to look ahead. The reason is this. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The dare is a journey between you and Christ. Not you and your husband. The dares are a way that you start trusting Christ and allow Him to mold you more in His image through each dare. So, no matter what the dare is, do it as it is intended without ANY manipulation from your own desire. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I would advise that you take some extra time and read the appendix especially the part on leading your heart. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;As for anything being mostly your fault or his, it is both. In fact, I am certain that this all boils down to selfishness on both of you. But that is all the ways of the world. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Through this journey you will learn what love is, through the ONLY means you can, Christ! But more importantly, you will understand unconditional love. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Dont worry to much about your husband and his &amp;quot;space&amp;quot;, do the dares. That will give him the space he needs while you take time to focus on building your relationship with Christ. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;When you learn to love Christ first, loving others will come easily.&lt;/p&gt; </description></item><item><title>Forum Post: Re: day 5. hard for me to ask</title><link>http://lovedarestories.com/5/f/233/p/33405/44605.aspx#44605</link><pubDate>Sat, 05 May 2012 10:27:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">0d90fb76-2118-4378-9ca3-da2f6e729b36:44605</guid><dc:creator>Sean</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;sckbrenners,&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; This is the first time I seen you on.

These are games of the world. He is as are you... Following his heart. Not in the sense that you think. Following the heart is truly a selfish thing.

As for counseling, I am here everyday for any quesitons you may have. &lt;/p&gt; </description></item></channel></rss>
