APPLYING WHAT YOU LEARNED: ASSIGNMENT #7 - A Cruciform Definition of Love “Love is willing self-sacrifice for the good of another that does not demand reciprocation or that the person being loved is deserving.” Use this definition to intentionally look for ways to love and serve your spouse.

3) For the good of another:
4) Reciprocation / Deserving:
PERSONAL REFLECTION: Am I humble enough to confess that I don’t love God as much as I claim I do? How can I grow in my love for God? How can I remember his love for me and water the soil of gratitude? What elements of my schedule do I need to give up in order to deepen my relationship with God and my spouse?
