Prodigal: Sometimes love is tough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Me: Yes, but it is something that we all have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prodigal: How?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Me: The Lord loves you so much today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is from Bold Love by Dr. Dan Allender & Dr. Tremper Longman III<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Love is never weak, nor is true strength ever lacking in tenderness. When someone gives love, it should be with a strength that does not fear the loss of the relationship. When someone is strong, it should be with a tenderness that does not use fear to intimidate. If we want to feed our enemy, then we must freely and wisely offer her tenderness and strength. The proportion of strength to tenderness, or vice versa, may be different for every person or situation we encounter, but in any case, there will never be a total eclipse of one over the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 Peter 1:3-5<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who by God’s power are being guarded though faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
