You reveal your heart through your words, your expressions, and your actions. To live a no regrets life, we have to learn to share our heart. Lovingly follow the truth is what Eph 5;15 says in the TLB. It tells us to live, speak and deal truthfully. We can share our heart by the way we live, how we deal with others and how we speak to others. Let’s live above board. Let’s make our words count. Let’s make sure our actions line up with what we believe and what we say. We don’t want our words to say one thing and our expression to tell a whole different story. If we tell our kids we love them, but sound mad as we tell it to them, they aren’t hearing love, they are hearing anger. No regrets living realizes that kids spell love, TIME. Actually everyone spells love that way. If you spend time with me, you show that you love me. So in your busy day, show some love to those you love, by spending time with them. You probably know someone who has a time share vacation home. They share time with other people, and have a few weeks a year to vacation in a beautiful place. They get the benefits of partial ownership without the cost of complete ownership. As good as that sounds for vacations, that isn’t realistic for relationships. We have to be all in with our time. We can’t say I will give them quality time for 2 weeks a year and little time in the other 50 weeks. Families and spouses need us everyday, engaged in life. Instead of deciding between quantity and quality, let’s do both. Let’s give our families lots of quality time, as often as possible. That’s the way to a no regrets life.
