We all knew, going into today, that there wouldn't be much on the 'active love' list for today. When Karen was home, I wasn't. When I was home Karen wasn't. And all through the day, both of us were busy with commitments or stuff that had to get done. Sometimes, you just have to wait for the right time and the right way to demonstrate your love We can wait. Patience is part of walking "in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called" (Ephesians 4:1-2). Patience is part of that fruit which the Spirit produces in us (Galatians 5:22). (We don't produce it. He does!) The very love we want to demonstrate - that love which God, Himself, has "poured out within our hearts" (Romans 5:5) - that love is patient (1 Cor 13:4). We can wait.
