Who’s up for a challenge? 

I’m going to challenge myself to see how many of my 4-3-2-1 List I can do this week and invite you to do the same.

4️⃣Easy Ways to Show Love to Those We Know:

  • Hugs, High Fives, Handshake: Pick an “H” to show some quick love.
  • Text or Phone Call: Make sure it is nothing that you are asking them to do but a genuine way to reach out to check in or show the love.
  • Invite them to dinner, your house, a walk, or shopping. Spending time is a wonderful way to show love.

3️⃣ Quick Ways to Show Love to Strangers:

  • Smile 
  • Wave &/or Say “Hello”
  • Thank a worker or waiter and give a genuine compliment NOT just a “thank you” with no eye contact.

2️⃣Ways to Show Love to Those We Do NOT Get Along With Naturally:

  • Ask them a question about themselves, either that you do not know yet or that you know they enjoy talking about, & just LISTEN.
  • Invite them to a group function that you put together or organize.

1️⃣Way to Show Love to Yourself:

  • This may be the hardest, it is for me, but simply see yourself through God’s eyes. He LOVES you so much we cannot even comprehend!!

These are all no-cost (well maybe the dinner) ways to show God’s love to others. I look forward to seeing what God will do in our lives this week if we simply love more. 

“Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.”  -1 John 4:7-8
