I am really excited to join her and countless others in what she is calling the "love revolution." She just wrote a new book called the Love Revolution. It is about walking in love and showing love in practical ways to people. I just got the book and I am excited to begin reading it and putting it into action in my own life. She is calling this a revolution because the definition of revolution is a sudden, radical, or complete change. That is what we need!!
Sometimes we just need something to help us make a decision and get started. So, Joyce is dedicating this week as the week to kick off the "love revolution." What does that mean? It means that this week you make a commitment and decision to start showing love in practical ways to the people in your life. Her ministry has a website where you can read more about it. I love the website because it gives you ideas that you can do to get started. This week's idea is is to give a gift of 15 minutes of your time, wherever or whenever it is needed.
I watch her television program every morning as I get ready for work and last week she said something that really inspired me. She said that she tries to wake up every morning with this goal in mind...to put a smile on at least three people's faces. This could simply mean smiling at that person at work who is hard to get along with. It could mean asking someone how they are doing and really listening to them. It doesn't tale a lot of money, it just takes time and a decision. I like the fact that she mentally makes a decision every day to show love and thinks about ways she can bless people. How would that change our lives and the lives of other people? I have to confess that most days I wake up and think about my needs and not how I can bless others. I am ready for that to change and if you are too I hope you will join with me in the "love revolution!"
