Top Highlights
“Patience is a choice to control your emotions rather than allowing your emotions to control you, and it shows discretion instead of returning evil for evil. It brings an internal calm to an external storm.” (source)
“Kindness is love in action. If patience is how love reacts in order to minimize a negative circumstance, kindness is how love acts to maximize a positive circumstance. Patience avoids a problem; kindness creates a blessing.” (source)
“Don’t wait for your spouse to be kind first. Make it your daily mission.” (source)
“But love in its truest sense is not based on feelings. Rather, love determines to show thoughtful actions even when there seems to be no reward. You will never learn to love until you learn to demonstrate kindness. First.” (source)
“If you don’t let love motivate you to make some needed changes in your behavior, you will unnecessarily limit the quality and enjoyment level of your marriage relationship.” (source)
