Over 10 years ago, Dr. Gary Chapman released a popular book titled, “The Five Love Languages.” Thousands have either read or at least have heard of this concept by now. I think there is much value and wisdom to be gained from the insight of how we all feel LOVE in a different way. I agree that it’s important to know our own mate’s LOVE language so that they feel truly LOVED by us. Here’s a quick review of the Five LOVE Languages in random order… 1.

Some Encouraging Words from God – Jeremiah 29
I’m really enjoying reading through the book of Jeremiah. I’m taking my sweet time as I drink my morning coffee and slowly digesting the words from this book in the Old Testament. In chapter 29, Jeremiah’s letter is sent from Jerusalem to the remnants of the elders which were carried away captives, and to the priests, the prophets and all the people whom Nebuchadnezzar had carried away captive from Jerusalem to Babylon.
