We MUST be able to give love and service with charity.
We also MUST be able to receive love and service in charity.

First Part: Common Sense. Pretty easy. Straightforward. I can do that... right? Well in most situations anyways...
Second Part: Not so much.

An observation I have had in this department it that it is kind of easy to serve others, mostly because it makes you feel good and those around you feel good. But what about when others serve and love you. Is it just as easy?
Classic example.
Ashley and I go out to lunch. Ash grabs the bill this time. Thanks.
Ashley and I go to Chilis to watch the Utah TCU game at her inconvenience. I try to take it this time. Say its okay I've got it. Give her back the money she shoved in my wallet. Give her back the money she left on my bed. Give up.
Maybe this is just a mallory ashley experience.
But the point is, let others serve you. Let others love you. It makes them feel good. So allow it to happen.
