Communication is important to the expression of love and to life itself. Where there is love, there must be communication, because love can never be passive and inactive. Love expresses itself and moves out toward others. When communication breaks down, love is blocked and its energy will turn to resentment and hostility. Without communication, the possibilities for a relationship become hopeless and the means for healing the hurts that are caused previously will no longer be present. Most people seem to think of communication as getting a message across to another person, “You tell him what you want him to know”, which is a one-way flow concept (monologue). However, communication is not monologue; it is a to-and-fro process (dialogue). A couple, for instance, fail to deal with a disagreement or quarrel because each is thinking only what he wants to say, instead of trying to discover the concerns and meanings his partner brings. Sometimes the real cause of a quarrel is not expressed and they can only deal with the superficial meanings of the conflict. The responsibility for communication calls for each other to pay attention to the meanings that the other one brings to the conflict, and also try to help the other say what he means, for his own and the sake of the other. In this way, constructive communication can be resumed and most of all, releases the expression of love. Selected – “herein is love” by Reuel L. Howe. This Week @ Detonate: Bonjour Detonates! We will be having Brother Isaiah to speak in our youth service this coming Saturday. We shall see you this Saturday at 4.45pm. Prayers and Fasting from the Body: IMPORTANT! LET'S PERSEVERE IN YOUR PRAYER FOR YOUR UNSAVED LOVED ONES. WE ARE IN FOR A SERIOUS BUSINESS. THIS CONCERNS ABOUT THEIR ETERNAL LIVES. DO NOT BE DECEIVE BY THE devil THAT YOUR PRAYER IS USELESS AND INEFFECTIVE. INSTEAD, YOU MUST PRESS ON. PRAY AND PRAY AND PRAY. DO NOT USE THE EXECUSE THAT YOU HAVE NO TIME. MOST OF YOU ARE DONE WITH YOUR EXAMINATIONS. SO PRAY NOW AND THEN. This day, 12 Oct 2009 at 00:00 am, as we deny ourselves and fast till the end, a 3:16 movement, we gonna get down to our knees to pray for the people that we will be inviting for the 3:16 event on 12 Dec 2009 at 06:30 pm. We gonna trust and believe God to open the hearts of those in our generation to recognise God in their lives! Let us encourage each other along the way. Amen!  |
