Love Languages & Words of Affirmation: Speaking Life into Your Spirit

Month of love: lets talk Love Languages

Words carry weight. They have the power to build up, to heal, and to transform. When we embrace Words of Affirmation as a love language, we not only uplift those around us but also nourish our own spirit by speaking life-giving truths over ourselves.

The Bible reminds us:
📖 “The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” — Proverbs 18:21

Just as we long to hear affirming words from loved ones, God desires us to affirm His truth in our lives. Whether through scripture, prayer, or journaling, intentionally declaring God’s promises strengthens our faith and renews our perspective.

💡 Try This: Write a love letter to God—expressing gratitude, declaring His faithfulness, and affirming His Word over your life. Because the more we speak His truth, the more our hearts align with His love. ❤️

Happy New Year 2025! A Reasonable Service

As the year comes to a close and we prepare our hearts for the new year, I find myself reflecting on a sermon I recently heard at a family church. The message was simple, yet profoundly impactful: What does it mean to give God an acceptable service?

This message felt especially fitting for the end of the year—a season of gratitude, reflection, and planning for what’s to come. Often as Christians, we overcomplicate the Bible, the commandments, and the instructions of God. Yet, God is not a complicated God. He is clear in His expectations, and His guidance is designed to lead us into peace, purpose, and joy.

The sermon explored how we can give God a service that is both reasonable and acceptable, and it offered key points that I believe are worth meditating on as we step into a new season.
