Regardless of the choices others make, you can learn the secrets of loving well. You can learn to recognize and receive real love when it comes your way—and push back when it doesn’t. You can learn to really love the people in your life—and know when and how to help them without hurting yourself in the process. True love offers a safe place to be you; it’s not driven by a desire to rescue, over protect, control or manipulate…or a need to perform. True love values the other person for who they are and celebrates healthy separateness. True love genuinely wants the best for the other person. It is grounded in our heart’s desire to cherish, honor and treasure another simply because of who they are. By discovering God’s plan for love and learning to live by it, you can open the door to freedom from entangled relationships, find healing from your painful past, and gain the ability to love wisely and be loved in return. This is an excerpt from Dr. Tims latest book, Break Through, When to Give In, How to Push Back
