Love does not pamper. It prunes and perfects and pursues. It is a sweet embrace and a sanctifying chisel.

I think it pampers and prunes as well. Different time for everything. Love lavishes grace and that is pampering I think

You reminded me of Ecclesiastes 3, a time for everything, and Romans 12, when we’re instructed to rejoice with those who rejoice and mourn with those who mourn.
By pamper, I mean enable. I don’t think love should let someone run off the edge. But sometimes a little “spoil” type pamper isn’t so bad. (And I did put prune up there, for sure.)
