Your Question:
What is the best way to show love to those around us when we're feeling tired?
Answer:
As a pastor and a husband, I've learned that showing love to those around us when we're feeling tired can be a challenge. However, I believe that it's in those moments when we need to be intentional about expressing love in creative ways. For example, taking a walk or going on a picnic can be a great way to spend quality time with loved ones without feeling overwhelmed. Even small gestures like making an effort to look nice or planning a surprise activity can go a long way in showing love and care. It's also important to remember that love is not just about feeling affectionate, but also about making sacrifices for the benefit of others. As a parent, I've learned that sometimes it's necessary to make tough decisions, like taking away a privilege or making my child eat something they don't like, because it's ultimately for their own good. In those moments, I try to remind them that I love them and want what's best for them, even if it's not what they want in the moment. As a Christian, I'm reminded that our love for others should be motivated by a desire to serve and honor God, rather than just seeking our own satisfaction or gratification. When we're feeling tired, it's easy to get caught up in our own struggles and forget about the needs of others. But by seeking to serve and love others, even when it's hard, we can experience a sense of purpose and joy that goes beyond our own feelings.
