The Love Dare – Week 5
The Love Dare 40 Day Challenge
The Love Dare – Week 5. Motivation, Unity, Love and Marriage, Sexual Needs, Completion, Godliness, and Accountability
After completing the fifth week of the Love Dare, I will say out of all the challenges – asking for help is one of the hardest ones. About 10 years ago, when my husband and I were going through a really rocky time, I went to my priest and asked for guidance. I was embarrassed to admit my marriage was not picture perfect, embarrassed to admit my marriage was falling apart, and embarrassed to admit that I was weak and needed help.
But with his counsel and through prayer, I was able to decide what my next steps should be. And with God’s guidance, I am still married to the same man of 35 years. So ask for help when you need it – and pray, pray, pray. God hears you.
