How do you communicate this?

What makes you feel cared for?

Do you do this for others?

What if I feel like I am being manipulated to do something by a guilt trip? What is the difference between caring and spoiling someone?

“So he left in Joseph’s care everything he had; with Joseph in charge, he did not concern himself with anything except the food he ate.” -Genesis 39:6a

How about God? What choices should you make to show God you care about Him? What has kept you from doing this up to now?

Karyn writes:
“we have to communicate ‘care’ by acting in such a way that the other person can understand. It doesn’t mean treating others how WE want to be treated, but treating them as THEY want to be treated (after all, that IS how we want to be treated, right?) Caring means being a student of others, and acting on what we learn, not expecting people to lay things out in black and white for us”
