it is a general love language...
really love is cg sermon! =)
5[or 6] language of Love
#1. Words of Affirmation
its like encouragement...
encouragement is wad? its when u put in courage into others...
this is sth i found at my couz parenting website:
There's a difference between praise and encouragement. One rewards the task while the other rewards the person ("You did it!" rather than "I'm proud of you!"). Praise can make a child feel that she's only "good" if she does something perfectly. Encouragement, on the other hand, acknowledges the effort. "Tell me about your drawing. I see that you like purple" is more helpful than saying, "That's the most beautiful picture I've ever seen." Too much praise can sap self-esteem because it can create pressure to perform and set up a continual need for approval from others. So dole out the praise judiciously and offer encouragement liberally; it will help your child grow up to feel good about herself.
The tongue has the power of life and death,
and those who love it will eat its fruit. - Proverbs 18: 21
#2.Quality Time
when u had ur attention all on the person
not multitasking and trying to spend time with the person...
What Quality Time isn't
Want to hear some really bad ideas for how to spend quality time with your children? A few examples of how not to relate positively with your kids:
- Watch a football game on TV while you try to play Monopoly with your children.
- Read the the paper while "helping" the kids with their Maths homework.
- Drive them to their scout group, then sit in the car reading a magazine while their leader shows them how to tie the knots.
- Take them to your office on Saturday and leave them to their colouring books while you work.
- Practice your golf shots and have your children chase after the balls when you're done.
Yes, there are several ways to fake it - appearing to care and pretending to be "involved" when you're really just babysitting. Your kids won't be fooled for long. They can see through adult pretenses with something like X-ray vision. And they will remember that you weren't there for them when they needed you most. Take it from one whose kids are now grown. Your children will be gone before you know it and off into a world of their own.
Someone said, "Love is giving somebody your undivided attention." Quality time isn't a compromise between your kids and something else. It's being with them and giving them 100 per cent of your attention.
extracted from Focus on The Family by Dr James Dobson
when is comes to gift giving, many sisters would give a big loud AMEN!
hahaz... it made us really excited! and Bro Jo oso said its a great language of love
one person once said,
u can give w/o loving, but u cannot love w/o giving!
and giving doesnt need to be a sth but it could oso be like giving of ur physical presence...
like being there for ur friend at their love ones' wake...
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. - John 3: 16
God showed His Great Love through gifts giving too=)
#4.Actsof Service
showing love through serving...
so let us serve one another...
Jesus serve His disciples by washing their feet! =)
some of my friends that i know, their love language is acts of service...
when u ser them refreshment after cg mtg and stuffs like that, they would be really happy
cause they felt loved when they r being served...
#5Physical Touch
this is not the for married couples type... -.-
its like for me, when my parents hug and kiss me i felt loved by them...
but it doesnt meant the same for everyone...
Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. "I am willing," he said. "Be clean!" And immediately the leprosy left him. - Luke 5: 13
like when Jesus showed the leper love by touching him,
after that the leper got cleansed when he was touched
People were bringing little children to Jesus to have Him touch them, but the disciples rebuked them. When Jesus saw this, He was indignant. He said to them, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it." And He took the children in His arms, put His hands on them and blessed them. - Mark 10: 13- 16
thats why many kids would cry when they r not carried, once they r carried, they stopped crying, cause they were assured of ppl loving them...
*#6Your Own Love Language
what ur own love language?
like mine is when ppl stood up for me...
or the above...
diff love language would be needed to be use at diff times...
like, when its my b'dae, i felt loved when i got many presents...
when i am down, ppl spend time with me i felt loved...
when its night time, i like getting hugs from my parents...
but when most pf the time my love language would be words of affirmation...
so thus, if i wanna get sth, i give that sth...
out of the blue if u see my encouraging u, u would know y, cause that my love language...
=)
Love God whole heartedly, Love ppl fervently
