Tough Love

Tough love is not about being tough on someone who is struggling. Tough love is about loving them even when it is tough on or for you!

Grace, mercy, forgiveness, thankfulness and perseverance in prayer!

Have you ever just sat and listened to someone who struggles and not given advice or opinions? Just listened. That is tough. Take all that you heard home to your prayer time. Do that consistently for many weeks or months or years, regardless of their response or whether or not there is any visible outward change. The Holy Spirit is the only one who can effect lasting change in a person’s life.
