Acts of Love

Yesterday, as I was walking upstairs, I tripped on the last step because my foot gave out. After being on my feet all day, the pain was unbearable. I wasn’t on the floor a good 10 seconds before I heard my husband running to my rescue. He elevated my feet, rubbed them gently, and applied ice packs to soothe the pain. His care didn't stop there; he tucked me in with a blanket, ensuring I was comfortable and warm—even after reassuring him multiple times that I was okay.

This loving act reminded me of Ephesians 5:25, which says, "Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her." This verse emphasizes the importance of selfless love and devotion. My husband's actions were a beautiful representation of this scripture, showing that true love is expressed through acts of kindness and care.

In both the highs and lows of life, it's these moments of selflessness that strengthen our relationships.

Just as my husband went the extra mile to comfort me, we are called to support and uplift one another in our daily lives. Whether it's through small gestures or significant sacrifices, the essence of love lies in our willingness to care for those we cherish.
