This practice is deliberately small because repeated obedience usually forms the heart more faithfully than dramatic promises made in a rush. If you need a second step, make it this: protect love from panic by refusing words or decisions that would be hard to repair with the help of a conversation with a church leader if the burden is too heavy alone.
