I’m reading Crazy Love. Francis shares an exercise he did. Let’s add it to our Love Journal.

Love is…

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 reads:

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.

5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.

6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.

7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

(Read the passage.)

Love Task

In place for “love” replace your name. Try it. Re-read the passage above and add your name.

Love Journal

1. Write the passage in your Love Journal.

2. Write the passage with replacing “love” and all pronouns (i.e., it) your name.

Here’s an example:

Dana is patient, Dana is kind. Dana does not envy, Dana does not boast, Dana is not proud.  

3. Read it daily until you begin to believe every word (or at least through the remainder of the month). 😉

Question: How does it feel to reference yourself in this manner?
