The Love Series (vocal)

The word love is sometimes a four letter word that people do not want to vocalize. In a marital relationship it is important to not only show your spouse love with actions, but to also vocalize that love with words. Years ago prior to my conversion. I cannot recall ever telling my mom and dad that I loved them. When I became a follower of Jesus Christ the Lord pressed upon my heart that i needed to share the love of Christ with them vocally. It was hard at first, and I didn't know how they would respond. But interestingly enough as soon as I vocalized the love, surprisingly they vocalized it back. This was not only the first time that I told them that I loved them but also the first time that they ever told me that they loved me. Paul said that we should, "let our speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought answer each one." Col 4:6 Can you imagine how many lives we would impact if we did this? Can you imagine how much God would bless our marriages? Can you imagine a world touched by the love of Christ? This is what God's love is all about!
