Make us eager to do good for others

How eager are you to love yourself as well as loving others?

Questions for Action for the week.

For your marriage: Recall your courting days and the things you did to make each other special. How could you renew some of those this week?

For Others: Think of someone who touched your life recently - find a way of saying thanks this week.
