Love and Need

I had a conversation just the other day that came upon the concept that when people whose primary love language is acts of service, you are more likely to feel the from them when you are in a time of need. I think that the distance from our family contributes to a problem for those with acts of service as their primary love language. It's hard to do anything from 3 states away but the real core of the problem is that what's going on and our needs have to be communicated. They can't read our minds and know we need them. We have to say something, ask for help. I have a need for childcare this summer to offset the expensive childcare I have lined up already. I wanted to save a few hunderd dollars and decided it wouldn't hurt to ask my mom to come out for 2 weeks at the end of summer. So, I guess my point is that if you aren't feeling the love from a certain family member, talk to them about what you need even if it's could you just pray for me this coming week. Right now I need prayers for my big toe that is still hurting, my attitude to be positive at work, my communication with my husband to be the best it's ever been and that my husband and chidren know each and every day that I love them and God loves them. Is there something you need that I can help you with?
