POLITE WORDS

Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.
Colossians 4:6 KJV

In love and relationships, words are so powerful because they determine the healthy or unhealthy state of the relationship. Words or communication is the life or the blood of every level of relationship. God is so interested is us as an individual to have healthy relationship with the people surround us. 

Either it's a platonic or romantic relationship, God is so concerned about the nature or kind of words we use to asking question and in answering question. 

As believers, the prove of your personal relationship with the Lord is in how good you are in relating with the people around you.

Anger is not an excuse. Like our text for this post, the bibles stated that LET YOUR WORDS BE ALWAYS WITH GRACE. My brothers and sisters, how gracious are you words? Is it only gracious when you are happy and abusive when you are angry or being offended? 

Irrespective of anybody attitude might be, the bible stated that it's your responsibility to know how to answer every man. That is to say, it's your duty to know the wisdom of the kind of words you chose to relate.

Are you careful in the kind of word you select in relating with people? Are your words seasoned with salt (respect). The salt here is respect. How respectful are your words to those above and below you?

This is your day of change. God is interested how polite you are to those that celebrate you and those that treat you bad. 

I have given you God's word; yours is to obey. No body is too small, too bad or too annoying to deserve rude and abusive words from you.

God is love and love is Christ in you. 

Jesus is your living Hope. 

Shalom!

Love With Honor as a Lady

Beloved of God, playing on a man’s intelligence is not love, even when it is done subtly. Manipulation, mind games, half truths, and emotional tactics slowly damage trust. A man may stay silent, but his mind carries the weight. Confusion replaces clarity, and peace begins to slip away. What should be a place of safety becomes a source of mental strain. When a man’s intelligence is not honored, his peace of mind suffers. Stress builds internally, affecting his emotions, decisions, and sometimes even his physical health. Love then becomes draining instead of strengthening. Beloved, love was never meant to be a battlefield of control but a place of mutual respect. True love does not compete with intelligence or seek to outsmart it. Love values honesty, clear communication, and respect. A man flourishes emotionally when he knows he is trusted and spoken to with sincerity. Honoring his mind builds trust, stability, and emotional safety in the relationship. Beloved of God, love should protec...

The True Essence of Love: Protection and Respect

Hello, lovers! Love is a beautiful and powerful force that binds two people together, creating a deep connection rooted in trust, vulnerability, and mutual respect. However, love comes with responsibilities. One of the most crucial aspects of a healthy, loving relationship is protection. Love culture demands protection—emotional, intellectual, and physical. If you cannot protect the person you love and instead abuse the access you have to their vulnerability, it’s time for a serious self-reflection. Protecting Vulnerability When someone loves you, they open up their heart, sharing their deepest fears, dreams, and insecurities. This level of vulnerability is a precious gift that must be cherished and safeguarded. If you exploit this vulnerability, manipulate their emotions, or demean their intellect, you are not only damaging the relationship but also becoming a toxic presence in their life. Recognizing this behavior is the first step toward change. Repentance and transformation are ess...

Cultivating Love

Love is often portrayed in movies and novels as a grand, sweeping emotion, filled with grand gestures and passionate declarations. However, at its core, love is more than just a feeling—it's a culture. It's a way of being considerate, appreciative, and value-oriented towards others, whether in platonic, romantic, or familial relationships. In today's fast-paced world, where self-interest and individualism can often take precedence, cultivating a culture of love is more important than ever. It's about recognizing the humanity in others and treating them with kindness, respect, and empathy. It's about going beyond our own needs and desires to consider how our actions impact those around us. At the heart of this culture of love is consideration. It's about taking the time to understand someone else's perspective, to listen to their thoughts and feelings, and to act in a way that takes their needs into account. Whether it's remembering a friend's birthda...
