One Step At A Time...

I struggle daily, with this at a follower of Christ. Am I speaking words that speak the love of Jesus? Am acting how Jesus would act when I am faced with trials and temptation?  Am I showing love to my fellow humans, even if we do not agree on certain topics? Am I being to a light those who need it most? Are my words being followed by actions of love? If I do not love, I have nothing. Jesus told us that the greatest of these is love. He wants us to love as He loves us. He calls us to love.     ''If I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don’t love, I’m nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate. If I speak God’s Word with power, revealing all his mysteries and making everything plain as day, and if I have faith that says to a mountain, “Jump,” and it jumps, but I don’t love, I’m nothing. If I give everything I own to the poor and even go to the stake to be burned as a martyr, but I don’t love, I’ve gotten nowhere. So, no matter what I say, what I believe,

He needs to know, not all of our family and friends. I will not call him out on Facebook and make him look like a jerk because he has displeased me in some way. I will not be passive aggressive  and post memes or pictures about how men are all lazy and complete idiots, and how hard it is to be the one who does everything. No one needs to know every detail of our marriage, good or bad. I would be really upset if he went on Facebook and complained because I didn't clean the kitchen one day but neglected to say that I have done it every other day of the month.
