Have you ever heard the phrase “Love begets love?” This little idiom is an absolute truth bomb. Love actually produces more love. We can increase the amount of love that we experience in our own lives by simply choosing to express love.

As we endeavor to live simply loved, I have a challenge to issue for this month. Every Saturday in October here on the blog will be “Share Your Love Saturday.” Your mission is to find a way to show love to someone else. That’s it. No grand gestures required (although a grand gesture now and then never hurt anyone). I find that it’s the little things that often make the biggest impact. For example, I have been eating gluten-free since the first of the year. Whenever my friend Michelle brings snacks to Bible study, she always includes something gluten-free for me to enjoy.  Her thoughtfulness makes me feel so loved!

What could you do for someone else today? Call that person you’ve been thinking about and chat for a few minutes. Mail a handwritten note. Help a neighbor with some yard clean-up. Deliver some goodies to someone who lives alone. Invite someone to go for a walk. Surprise a friend with their favorite coffee or other beverage of choice. The possibilities are endless!

Simply share your love. Will you accept the challenge?
