How Does Biblical Love Express Itself in Marriage? Part 5

Over the past 4 days, we have considered 20 ways biblical love expresses itself (from Tripp's, What Did You Expect). Today, in our last installment, let's consider 3 more:

21. Love is refusing to be self-focused or demanding but instead looking for specific ways to serve, support, and encourage, even when you are busy or tired.

22. Love is daily admitting to yourself, your spouse, and God that you are not able to love this way without God’s protecting, providing, forgiving, rescuing, and delivering grace.

23. Love is a specific commitment of the heart to a specific person that causes you to give yourself to a specific lifestyle of care that requires you to be willing to make sacrifices that have that person’s good in view.
