I thought I knew my spouse, Perry's, love languages when we got married. I was surprised to find just how difficult it was to make him feel known and truly loved. This wasn't his doing, but because as humans, we naturally want to give love the same way we want to receive love, don't we?
Jeremiah 1:4-5 reads, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.”
The word consecrated means to be set apart as holy, to be treasured. God treasures you in the unique way He made you, and He treasures your spouse in the unique way He made them. At the core of your heart, you desire to be set apart as unique, holy, and special by your spouse too. This is part of why you said, “I do,” at the altar.
To make your spouse feel both fully known AND truly loved requires intentionality. It takes laying aside how you may receive love, to make your spouse feel loved.
