Day Twelve: Turn your ear to wisdom and apply your heart to understanding. Proverbs 2:2
Now that you’ve learned your wife’s love language and have gotten a few ideas about how to put it into practice, do not let any grass grow under your feet. The sooner you begin to speak her language, the more quickly she will respond and the more quickly you will be able to speak her language fluently.
What ideas did you get from your wife? What ideas can you come up with on your own?
This may be difficult for you, especially if your love language is not the same as your wife’s. You may wonder how anybody could feel loved by even the smallest act of service or a heartfelt hug while washing dishes, but if it’s your wife’s love language, she will get the message loud and clear.
Today’s challenge is to get more comfortable speaking your wife’s love language by speaking it to her today.
If you are still unsure of what to do to speak her language, check out 5 Love Languages or buy the book The Five Love Languages, Gary Chapman (Northfield Publishing, Chicago, 1992).
