Love in Any Language

I was invited to teach Gary Chapman's 5 Love Languages to some young couples from Daniel and Wilter's church this morning.... or was it still night?  We met at Daniel and Wilter's house at 7:00 a.m., which means we had to leave our house at 6:30...not our typical Saturday morning, but it sure  was worth it.

The response of the group was overwhelmingly positive.  Some had a pretty good idea what their spouse's love language was going in, while others were very surprised.  What we did together today will have the greatest impact on the marriages of those who were surprised.

One couple, Kephous and Rebecca were running late, primarily because Rebecca had been out of town and just arrived home this morning after traveling all night.  From their testimony, our discussion was extremely helpful to both of them.  Afterwards, Kephous told us he had a vision a few days ago about being at Daniel's house and there was a white couple there.  A few minutes later, Daniel called him and invited him to today's class.  Of course, he immediately said yes, believing God wanted him to be there.  That's why they did not allow multiple barriers keep them from being apart of the 5 Love Languages class.

It looks like I may have a chance to do it again next week.  The ones who were there want to gather some more friends next Sunday evening and have another class. This  time they are thinking about having it at Cornerstone where there will be more room.

Please continue to pray that we will see and accomplish God's purposes while we are here.

Blessings,
Edd

That would be wonderful. I think our group needs to do more things out of the 'normal' routine we're in.
