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!

The 4 Principle of LOVE

-
Friendship, Relationship, Marriage and fatherhood have both taught me a lot about the importance building great relationships, and what it truly means to establish ones that thrive rather than run dry and fade away. I want my family to create meaningful relationships with people that will stand the test of time, not crumble during times of pain and uncertainty. Throughout the Bible, we see Jesus cultivating relationships with all different types of people from all different types of backgrounds. He did this by doing four key things: listening well, loving well, serving well and forgiving well. Jesus is the ultimate example of a great relationship maker, and I think applying these four keys will help you establish long-lasting connections. 1. Listen Well Anyone who has been married for any amount of time will tell you that there is a big difference between hearing someone and listening to them. And even though I’ve been at fault for this more times than I’d love to admit, the d

The Transformative Power of Love: Embracing God's Kingdom CultureLove

-
It's a word that holds immense power and significance in our lives. Often, when we think of love, our minds immediately gravitate towards romantic relationships. While romantic love is undoubtedly beautiful and meaningful, it's essential to recognize that love extends far beyond the confines of dating or marriage. Love, in its truest form, is a culture—a way of life that reflects the very heart of God's kingdom. At its core, love is selfless and considerate in nature. It's about putting the needs of others above our own, extending kindness, compassion, and grace in every interaction. Love is not just a fleeting emotion; it's a deliberate choice—a commitment to treating every person with dignity, respect, and empathy. In the hustle and bustle of our daily routines, it can be easy to lose sight of the importance of love. We become consumed by our own agendas, rushing from one task to the next, often neglecting the feelings and needs of those around us. However, love c

TRANSFER AGGRESSION IN RELATIONSHIP

-
Transfer aggression in a relationship refers to the phenomenon where an individual redirects their anger or frustration from one source onto their partner or another person in the relationship. This behavior can have several future effects on the dynamics and well-being of the relationship. 1. Communication Breakdown:    Transfer aggression often leads to a breakdown in communication. When one partner consistently channels their negative emotions onto the other, it creates a hostile environment, hindering open and honest communication. Over time, this can erode the foundation of trust and understanding within the relationship. 2. Resentment and Emotional Distance:   Constantly being the target of transferred aggression can foster resentment in the victimized partner. This resentment may lead to emotional distance as the affected individual withdraws to protect themselves from the ongoing negativity. This emotional distance can strain the intimacy and connection between partners. 3. Imp
