Whether from pastors or from motivational speakers, I can guarantee that you have heard something about the power of words and how it can transform your life. They teach that you should say what you want to see and not what you can currently see around you. Speaking is a powerful thing, and one way we can change things around us is by our words. Among the numerous areas of life that can change with your speaking, your relationship with your spouse can change with the way you speak to him or her.
Faith Oyedepo said that when you say the words “I love you”, it spices up your marriage. She compared speaking these words to the way rain falls on a field. Just as a farmer needs continuous rain for his crops to grow, a relationship needs continuous speaking of the words “I love you” to have a fruitful relationship.
I understand that this might be a problem for some people. I know that there are people who believe actions speak louder than words. They believe that when you show your spouse that you love them, there will be no need to keep telling them that you love them. However, the problem with having this mentality is that it ignores the power of words. As human beings, we constantly need reassuring. No matter how many things we see, we would still love reassuring most of the time.
You know, it’s the little steps we take regularly that enable us to form habits and characters. If you begin today to start telling your spouse “I love you”, even if you don’t feel like it, it will get to the point where it becomes natural and easy for you to do it. It all begins with a choice. Make the choice today to begin to speak these words to your spouse, and watch your marriage change forever. Be blessed.
