Look what's talking....

Body language-non verbal communication that consits of body posture, gestures, facial expressions, and eye movement.
     Various studies show different statistics but, according to John Borg "Communication consits of 93% of body language, while only 7% consits of words."
    Body language can be used in many different ways. It can show approval, disappointment, happiness, and even romantic and sexual intentions.

     In the game charades, you use body language to speak the word or phrase that you have been given. The object of the game is to win without using any verbal communication. In your day to day living your body language can speak louder than any words you can say. From crossing your arms, looking down, a smile, or putting your hands on your hips; they all say different things.
    You can intentionally or unintentionally give off romantic or sexual vibes with your body. Batting your eyes and wearing a tight dress to accentuate your curves are just a few examples of romantic or sexual body language. We as girls should not cause boys to stumble because of our body language. Our bodies should be used for good and not evil.
  In Ephesians 5 chapter 1 God says: "Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children and walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God."

No matter your intention or unintention body language speaks volumes.


Love in Christ,
