The way we live can declare, "I am for you." The spoken words bring life too. It's awkward to say, but the gift of life it gives is worth the risk. Sometimes, the way we live declares the opposite, "I am against you." We don't mean to, but it happens in thoughtless, unintended ways. The good news? Being "for" someone, especially those you live with, isn't about "getting it right." It's about choosing active love again and again. We can make intentional choices with real purpose to help us offer a open hand to those we are "for." Listen in to one of my failures, an ah-ha moment or two, and a way you can choose a life that declares, "I am for you" to those you love most.
