Read Proverbs chapter 3

VERSE:

Proverbs 3:3–Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart.

TRUTH:

Love and faithfulness are often quickly cast aside when we encounter trouble and difficulties. We start to assume that we must become selfish and trust in our own abilities to get out of situations instead of continuing to love people and trust in God. It requires discipline to continue to love and have faith in God in the midst of difficult situations. We must actively choose these things because they do not come naturally. What will we choose when we are faced with difficulties?

RESPONSE:

Father, I will choose to keep love and faithfulness at the front of my mind no matter what is happening or going on in my life. I will allow You to work through me to love everyone regardless of how they have treated me.
