  So relax. Get your pen and paper, and let
• 0:41
  us major in marriage. Hello and welcome to all my
• 0:51
  Queens to the women major in marriage podcast with yours
• 0:57
  truly, Janice L Vance. As always, I want to say thanks
• 1:05
  to all of you that continue to Rob with me some of these
• 1:09
  eversole may not be. Something they resonate with
• 1:15
  you, but you listened anyway? And I'm hoping when you listen,
• 1:22
  maybe there's some kind of take away that you can get from this
• 1:26
  episode today might not resonate with everyone and because it is
• 1:31
  particularly for wise married women, we're now on episode
• 1:38
  number 22. Can y'all believe we in the
• 1:40
  month of February already? It is so hard to believe.
• 1:44
  Where's time going? I tell you whatever you're gonna
• 1:48
  do, you better do it now because we've got not gonna be able to
• 1:51
  get these days back the years back so we better do it.
• 1:55
  Now episode number 22 to us. Why no one?
• 2:02
  I will husband's love language. No one hour, husband love
• 2:08
  language. Yeah, as we know the divorce
• 2:11
  rate is 50%, I mean half of the people that get married.
• 2:17
  They said I Do For Better or For Worse richer people, whatever.
• 2:23
  I have given up and thrown in the top tied.
• 2:29
  People are not. Fighting or considering their
• 2:34
  vows that they made the vows. They they so happily said I do
• 2:39
  too. Things have happened in that
• 2:43
  marriage. And people are leaving with no
• 2:47
  conviction, I always say. Ask God, do you stay or go?
• 2:55
  My friend, Donna wrote a great book, Donna Martin and I think
• 3:03
  the book the title is should I stay or should I go?
• 3:10
  I should have gotten a book out, a great book, a great book to
• 3:14
  read a great book. Donna Martin should I stay or
• 3:18
  should I go or it might be stay or go?
• 3:22
  I forgot which one it is, but such a great book, but I want to
• 3:25
  encourage us, as wise, to fight for our marriage, I don't
• 3:31
  suggest an an abusive marriage or one that adultery is the
• 3:36
  issue. We have people that get tired of
• 3:41
  each other, grow apart, people just go on by their own separate
• 3:48
  ways. He doing his thing, she doing
• 3:51
  her thing and I considering each other and they grow apart, they
• 3:55
  grow apart, but before they grow apart they become roommates
• 3:59
  living. Like roommates just.
• 4:02
  Hi how you doing by? We're going to eat what we're
• 4:06
  going to do. Just roommate grow apart.
• 4:11
  We have people that getting tired of each other growing
• 4:16
  apart. I don't know that we can make a
• 4:21
  person where I do now. I do know this, that we can't
• 4:25
  make a person love us but we must do all that we can for our
• 4:30
  marriage. This is to us wives that are
• 4:35
  still majoring in our marriage. So wives include a mean this
• 4:44
  deal. Major, I'm still trying to make
• 4:47
  our marriage work. Still trying to make us have a
• 4:51
  thriving marriage, not getting so comfortable and thinking that
• 4:54
  is perfect and not trying to make things better.
• 4:57
  There's always room for growth. This is for us and hopefully
• 5:01
  this will encourage you to push a little harder if you that
• 5:07
  woman. That is not majoring.
• 5:09
  You just tired. Y'all just just staying
• 5:11
  together. There's no communication.
• 5:18
  The love is gone. I hope this will encourage you
• 5:22
  and push you just a little bit harder.
• 5:27
  Why is it? Let us examine to see which is
• 5:30
  our husband love language. It could possibly be more than
• 5:35
  one. Also, a person love language
• 5:38
  does not have to stay the same because the love language can
• 5:42
  change with season. What was His love language.
• 5:48
  We when he was in his 20s, might not be the same in this story
• 5:53
  but it is 50 might not be the same as any 60, examine your
• 5:57
  husband and see what is his love language.
• 6:01
  The first love language. Ladies is words of affirmation.
• 6:07
  Affirm our appreciation to our husband in words.
• 6:13
  Let our husband know that we appreciate them.
• 6:17
  Give praise and give compliment. We often tell other people how
• 6:22
  you know we appreciate them but never remember to tell our
• 6:27
  husbands, remember everyone loves praise.
• 6:31
  It can easily be done unintentionally because we just
• 6:34
  assume already know. I appreciate.
• 6:37
  She ate him, he know, I think him.
• 6:41
  Just try saying thanks more often, if you know that your
• 6:45
  husband love language, do everything you can to show
• 6:51
  appreciation. The second one is acts of
• 6:55
  service acts of service number two, Put action to our words no
• 7:03
  that's the old saying. Say actions speak louder than
• 7:06
  words. That is particularly true of
• 7:10
  love for most people. If acts of service is our
• 7:14
  husband primary, love language, then nothing will speed more
• 7:18
  deeply to him. Emotionally then simple acts of
• 7:23
  service start expressing Love by doing those things that are
• 7:28
  important. To him.
• 7:32
  Talk is cheap. if no action is associated with it, sometimes we
• 7:39
  as wives have to do some things that may not interest us, but it
• 7:45
  interest, I husband if you know active service Is his love
• 7:51
  language then, focus on what you can do to enhance that act of
• 7:57
  service. Number three, receiving gifts.
• 8:04
  Don't forget Everyone likes receiving gifts.
• 8:08
  Once in a while, regardless of our society we live in
• 8:12
  throughout all human history, gift-giving has been perceived
• 8:17
  as an expression of love and people over and other countries
• 8:23
  ladies. They Love giving gifts.
• 8:29
  They love receiving give gift giving is one of their main
• 8:36
  things and a lot of these countries, you go.
• 8:40
  Those people in Africa, they disbelieve and gift giving those
• 8:45
  people in Jamaica. Those people over in Europe,
• 8:49
  they love giving gifts everybody like gifts.
• 8:56
  Every now and then. So if your husband is one that
• 9:00
  really, really, really, really, really like a lot of gifts and
• 9:04
  just get so excited about you, thinking of him, then show him
• 9:10
  your expression of Love by giving gifts.
• 9:14
  If that's his primary love language, presenting, what the
• 9:17
  occasion of guilt. When people receive a gift, they
• 9:21
  feel loved most deeply. If I husband really love gifts,
• 9:27
  then we must give them just because gift and I just because
• 9:32
  gift is, you know, An on occasion gear.
• 9:36
  It's not it's not his birthday is not Father's Day.
• 9:41
  You know, honey, he is a gift. I remember one time.
• 9:49
  No, I can remember. Several on Sarah, silver case, I
• 9:54
  have sent my husband flowers on his job and people would ask
• 10:00
  him. What have you must be in the
• 10:02
  doghouse? What have you done?
• 10:05
  And I'm thinking Okay, but women do this.
• 10:10
  This is not, this is not uncommon cinnamon, cinnamon
• 10:15
  flowers on his job and and and he will really get excited but
• 10:20
  I'm thinking. Okay, everybody does, they do
• 10:24
  look things in look gills or come home to flowers or come
• 10:28
  home and I wrap a gift or whatever.
• 10:31
  But if that is your husband love language, put forth, effort
• 10:37
  women, Put forth effort. The number four is quality time.
• 10:45
  If our husbands love language is quality time, giving him, our
• 10:49
  undivided attention, is one of the best ways to show.
• 10:54
  Love quality. Tammy, said, underside of time
• 10:58
  to give our husband, our undivided attention.
• 11:02
  You know, sometimes we as wives, you know, we have a lot on her
• 11:05
  plate in a day. It could be hard, trying to find
• 11:10
  time on a consistent base, but we have to do that.
• 11:15
  We have to find time. We might be busy with the
• 11:21
  children. We might be busy with our job.
• 11:25
  Might be busy with the church. We might be busy with our
• 11:28
  friend. We might be locked down on
• 11:31
  social media. Stop and give him quality time.
• 11:37
  If that is his love language. We have to make time women.
• 11:45
  We might not like sports, but if that is important to her
• 11:49
  husband, then speak his language.
• 11:52
  Sit down and watch a game sometime.
• 11:55
  You might not even like sports like me.
• 11:59
  It's not that. I don't like, on careful.
• 12:01
  I really don't care for sport. It's okay, but if that's if
• 12:06
  that's our husband love like ain't nothing wrong.
• 12:09
  With sometimes sitting down watching the game just seemed
• 12:12
  sad. you know, he watching the guy just go to sit beside I'm
• 12:18
  going to give us this challenge this week, look to see if we
• 12:23
  give each other. Undivided attention, you're not
• 12:28
  gonna believe. How many minutes I'm going to
• 12:32
  say for 15 minutes of our time? For 7 days.
• 12:41
  Don't say anything to your husband.
• 12:42
  This is the challenge. Don't say anything to him, just
• 12:46
  pay attention and see if you are giving each other. 15 minutes,
• 12:54
  15 minutes undivided attention. Not you have in your phone and
• 13:01
  talking in the phone on your phone and looking up, no
• 13:05
  undivided attention. Take the challenge.
• 13:07
  Ladies number 5, number 5 is physical, touch, Communicating
• 13:15
  love more clearly by touching your spouse.
• 13:20
  If physical touch is his love language.
• 13:24
  If physical touch is our husband primary love language.
• 13:30
  Then take the initiative to reach out and touch your husband
• 13:35
  wise, a rub on the shoulder holding hands in public.
• 13:40
  Rub your fingers, do is whatever the physical Teja, he like being
• 13:45
  touched. Tension if you know that really
• 13:49
  is what he really really likes. And since I'm talking to all of
• 13:54
  us that a wife talking to me too, I want to stress the
• 14:00
  importance annoying as love language.
• 14:03
  It is also important that we know our own love language and
• 14:07
  that I husband knows hours. Here's another challenge.
• 14:13
  Ask your husband what is your love language and if he doesn't
• 14:16
  know the five love languages name you don't have to go in
• 14:20
  detail. Just named gift-giving physical
• 14:23
  touch with and if he doesn't know what the Love Lane, tell
• 14:27
  them what they are. And then say what what are you,
• 14:29
  which one you think is minor? Do I have to love to love?
• 14:33
  Mango, do I have three or do I have all five of them?
• 14:38
  That's the challenge. Ask your husband.
• 14:42
  Why is it let us start today by studying our husband, pay
• 14:47
  attention to the things we know are important to him.
• 14:51
  We will be amazed at the very small things that speak to his
• 14:57
  language. When we as why I began to focus
• 15:01
  on our husband, God will bless us and allow us to focus more on
• 15:09
  our love language. We need to remind ourselves of
• 15:13
  the things we did before we mayor, when we were dating,

• 15:33
  in the spice. Guess what it is?
• 15:37
  It is the preservative that which preserve romance and the
• 15:43
  relationship over the Long Haul. It is so easy to become content
• 15:49
  and complacent and began to live like roommate.
• 15:53
  The Bible talks about pleasing our neighbor who is our clothes
• 15:58
  Nate I spouse. Notice that Christ did not seek
• 16:04
  to please himself, he gay? His life.
• 16:10
  So we might hear he gay. We must give and not just think
• 16:20
  about ourselves consider. I husband started a Find your
• 16:27
