“I can’t live without…” “I’ll just DIE if I don’t have…” “Ooooooo, that’s my favorite thing in the whole world!” Your girl might be apt to speak in the language of worship from time to time, especially about things that have a hold on her heart. Be it a phone, tacos, or her best friend.  

Truthfully, we all worship something. Even those who reject God have worldly things they elevate and essentially worship. How do you know? They will put the object of their worship into a life-or-death box; it is the key to their life’s happiness or they’ll perish without it. 

If you notice your girl speaking like this, gently caution her of the heart-hold in place. If the hold is anything OTHER than God, Creator and Savior, it might be time for some soul cleansing.
