The Sister Challenge

Doing the Love Dare a 40 day Challenge to love our husbands better, to understand and practice unconditional love... w/my daughter and her friends....feels odd and voyeuristic and yet important....I am doing it alone while they have a community of women sharing the journey..I could add my 2 cents worth to their blog but like most things feel that would be about me and this...this feels like it could be about my husband....
In the intro it says: IF we are teachable, we will learn to do the one thing that is most important in marriage - to love....We dare you to think differently - choosing instead to lead your heart toward that which is best in the long run. This is a key to lasting, fulfilling relationships...

nothing new or earthshattering there but reading it I am excited....I feel teachable and I am committed to my husband so looking forward to the challenge....I desire w/Your help Abba to lead my heart to loving him and others w/out condition...
