The Love Dare: Day 4

DAY #4:  Love Is Thoughtful
"How precious also are Your thoughts to me... How vast is the sum of them!  If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand."  Psalm 139:17-18

TODAY'S DARE:
Contact your spouse sometime during the business of the day.  Have no agenda other than asking how he or she is doing and if there is anything you could do for them..

MY REFLECTION:
This was a tricky one.  I am out of town and not in a real good position to do anything much that my husband would need me to do.  Also, where I was staying I didn't get good reception on my phone, so, I thought, what's the point?  I'll wait till I get back home and double up on a a different day.  Now, let me remind you that my husband has NO idea that I am in the midst of The Love Dare.  He called me today to see how I was, what my plans were for the day and..... get this.... if there was anything he could do for me while I was gone!!  Crazy!!  I'm supposed to be doing the dare on him and it's like God said, "Let me show you how faithful I am.  I'm going to surprise you, Cindy, and show you that I am actively working in Tommy's life."  I was blown away!  I told Tommy that he could pray for me and he asked me if I would pray for him (he's not been feeling well lately.)  So, even though I thought that I couldn't do today's dare, God showed me there is always a way to be thoughtful... NO EXCUSES!!  Thank you, Lord!   

"I thank my God in all my remembrance of you."  Philippians 1:3
