Good Afternoon,                                                                                                             Last week I shared the acrostic F A L T, and explored Faithful, Authentic and Available.     This week I want to examine Loving.  One definition of loving is “warmly affectionate”.  Hebrews 13:1 TPT   “No matter what, make room in your heart to love every believer”.    This can be a challenge.  Believers are human beings.  As humans, we all fall short.  We get irritable; we say words that are hurtful.  We act the opposite of being loving.  When this happens, we ~ especially women ~ ...
