The concept of love languages was first introduced by Gary Chapman, a relationship counselor, and author. He proposed that there are five love languages, which are: words of affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service, and physical touch. According to Chapman, each person has a primary love language, and understanding and speaking that language can greatly improve the quality of our relationships.
God wants a relationship with us. We could construct an argument that God speaks all of our love languages, but the giving of Jesus for the Sins of the World is the supreme expression of God’s love for us. God has not just told us that he loves us in the Bible but has acted decisively in Human history by sending Jesus.
And that is very good news for those of us whose love language is gift giving and acts of service (That is we associate our sense of value worth and esteem by the costliness of a gift) For there was no greater gift, no greater value that God could bestow upon humanity, than giving us his Son Jesus.
Words of Affirmation - God has told us he loves us in the Bible (John 3:16)
Acts of Service - God sustains the universe with the power of his word.
Quality time - God desires to spend time with us, he desires our attention but often we are the ones that are too busy.
Touch - God came down from heaven. Jesus the Eternal Son walked among us.
Gift Giving - In giving us Jesus God was giving us his very heart. There was no greater gift that God could bestow upon us.
Be convinced - God loves you.
