Marriage and Beyond

I have shared in one of my previous entries why it is important to know your spouse’s love language.

Allow me to jump on to the third love language- Gifts. When you say that someone’s love language is receiving gifts, it does not necessarily imply that it means that you are in a high maintenance relationship. If this is your spouse’s love language, diamonds, raymond weil watches, or any other expensive items should not be all what we should be thinking. More often than not a bud of rose especially picked out for your wife is all there is to make her day. Gifts are symbols of love. I would often hear my husband preach from behind the pulpit these words which are eternally true, “You can give without loving, but you cannot love without giving.”

Fact is, gifts have nothing to do with the monetary value but everything to do with love. This is the easiest love language to learn. Physical presence is a very powerful gift especially in time of crisis. If you listen hard enough, you will know if this is your spouse’s love language.
