Love You Can Receive Every Day: When God Uses Your Quiet Kindness to Speak


Love You Can Receive Every Day: When God Uses Your Quiet Kindness to Speak

By Angel, Founder of AMC Rise and Thrive


Hello beautiful soul 🤍

I’m really glad you’re here today.

And before we begin… let me lovingly warn you: I’m about to give y’all some church. 🙏✨
If that makes you uncomfortable, I truly understand — and I say this with tenderness, not judgment. But this is what’s on my heart today, and I’ve learned that when something is placed on your spirit this strongly, you don’t bury it. You share it.

Because February is known as the month of love… 💗
But today isn’t about candlelight dinners, heart-shaped candy, or the kind of love we hope another human will finally give us.

Today is about a love you can receive every single day — if you choose to believe and open your heart.

A love that doesn’t fluctuate with moods.
A love that doesn’t disappear when you struggle.
A love that doesn’t leave you feeling like you have to “earn” being worthy.

It’s the love of God.

And I’m sharing this not from a place of perfection…
but from a place of experience. From the moments I needed love the most — and found it in a way that surprised me.


When a Song Finds You in the Dark

I actually wanted to write this post because of the song I picked. 🎶

To give you some backstory… this song found me over a year ago when I was in a very dark place.

And I’m not saying that lightly.

I was struggling in ways I didn’t know how to explain. My marriage wasn’t what I needed at the time — not because I was demanding, but because sometimes we expect our partners to love us the way we love… and that’s just not realistic.

We want someone to read our hearts.
To see our effort.
To recognize our pain without us having to beg for understanding.

And when that doesn’t happen, you can start to feel unappreciated… invisible… like you’re pouring and pouring and pouring, and no one notices how empty you’ve become.

That’s where I was.

And in those dark hours… this song appeared.

Divine timing. ⏳✨

It came across my path at the exact moment I needed it, and as it played, I felt like it was speaking directly to me. Not in a casual way — in a piercing, soul-deep way.

It reminded me of something I had forgotten:

There is an unconditional love available to me that I wasn’t tapping into.

It reminded me that I am a child of God — and that I have someone who will always love me the way I’ve always wanted.

Not the love that changes when I’m inconvenient.
Not the love that disappears when I’m overwhelmed.
Not the love that withdraws when I’m not “easy.”

But love that stays.

Love that holds.

Love that heals.


🌿 When You Believe… but Stay Quiet About It

Now I’m going to be honest — I used to be very uncomfortable talking about my faith. 😬

Not because I didn’t believe. I did.

But it was something I kept private.

And I didn’t like people “harping” about Jesus.

I knew He was great — but why shove it down someone’s throat? Let them come to the realization themselves. Let faith be something people choose, not something they feel forced into.

So, I was never the preachy type.

I wasn’t the one quoting scripture at every turn.
I wasn’t the one trying to convert people in the grocery store aisle.
I wasn’t the one bold enough to say, “God told me…” out loud.

That wasn’t me.

And then something shifted.

One day in church, the pastor was talking about how we are all in God’s army — and that it is our mission to preach to others and spread the glory.

And I listened. I nodded. I received the message.

But internally?

I thought: That isn’t me. 🙃

I didn’t feel qualified for that.

I didn’t feel bold enough.
I didn’t feel “holy” enough.
I didn’t feel like I had the right personality for it.

And later that day, on the way home, I talked to my second mom about it — because sometimes we gain clarity through conversation.

I told her exactly how I felt.

And she asked me something simple:

“Don’t you try to do good? Try to help others? Strangers? Family?”

And without even thinking, I said yes.

Because I do.

If I see an elderly person struggling, I offer assistance. I don’t stop to analyze it. I don’t weigh the pros and cons. I just do it.

And that’s when she explained something that stayed with me:

That’s God’s work too.

Showing kindness in a world that can feel cold is spiritual work.
Offering help without expecting anything in return is spiritual work.
Being a safe presence is spiritual work.

Your actions can give someone hope that there are still good people in the world.

And that thought… sat with me. 🕊

It lived in the back of my mind.

It softened the way I saw myself.
It changed the way I viewed “ministry.”

Because maybe ministry isn’t always a microphone.

Maybe sometimes ministry is simply being a light.


🌧️ The Moment God Asked Me to Speak

Some time later, my dentist lost his wife to cancer.

And I didn’t know what to do with that information at first. You hear news like that and it just… hits your heart in a quiet way.

Then one day, I took my son for a visit.

And when I walked into the office, something felt different.

The décor was the same.
The layout was the same.

But the energy?

Different.

And I couldn’t place my finger on it until my dentist came in for the final checkup.

That’s when it hit me.

I felt the pain. The sorrow. The heaviness he was carrying.

It was like grief had filled the room.

And that encounter weighed on me all the way home. I couldn’t shake it. I tried to distract myself, but it stayed with me.

And then… I did something I wasn’t planning to do.

I wrote him a letter.

Not by hand — I was on my phone and the words just started pouring out. I didn’t plan it. I didn’t overthink it. I wrote from the heart.

I worked on that letter for two days. 📝
Rereading it. Adjusting it. Making sure it was right. Because when someone is grieving, your words matter.

Then I went to the store and got him some candles. 🕯
And I made him a song list.

And honestly… looking back now, I can see it so clearly:

That was the spark that would one day become this blog. 💛

I wrote him my thoughts — about grief, about love, about honoring her. I reminded him that God was near even in heartbreak.

And later I realized…

That was God putting it in my heart to speak into this man’s life in his dark hour.

And let me add this part too, because it matters:

I hate the dentist. 😅
I get anxiety just thinking about it.

But this dentist? He put me at ease the first time I met him — years before my son was even born.

And when my son was diagnosed with autism, this dentist was able to take care of him with no problems. He was patient. Understanding. Kind.

There were times I called the office worried because I noticed something, and he got us in the same day. He was busy — but he listened.

And sure enough, my son had chipped his front tooth. It wasn’t visible to the naked eye, but it showed on the X-ray.

He had always been there in my time of need.

So, I respected him. I appreciated him. We had history.

And yes, I sent my condolences when his wife passed.

But this was the first time I had been in the same room with him since she had died.

And God used that moment.

So, I left my gift bag at the office: the letter, the song list, the candles — and a prayer to God that He would comfort this man when he needed it most.

I didn’t stay. The office was busy and I didn’t want to intrude.

I simply obeyed what I felt in my spirit and left.


Proof That God Uses the Quiet Ones Too

A couple of days later, I received a text message from him.

He thanked me.

And he said something that I will never forget:

He told me I brought him to tears.

He said my words sounded like his wife.

He said my words touched his heart right when he needed it.

And right there… that was proof.

God used me to comfort him.

God put it in my heart to reach out.

And in that moment, the silence I had carried for most of my life — the faith I kept private, the words I held back, the light I tried to dim so I wouldn’t “bother” anyone — helped someone.

And that changed me.

Because I realized something:

God doesn’t only use the loud ones.

He uses the quiet ones too. 🙏
He uses the ones who think they’re not qualified.
He uses the ones who don’t feel “preachy.”
He uses the ones who think kindness doesn’t count as ministry.

But it does.

Your compassion is a language of heaven.

And that moment became part of what brought me here today — speaking to you.

Because once you see God move through you… it’s hard to go back to silence.

Not because you become pushy.
Not because you become judgmental.

But because you become brave enough to say:

This love is real. And it’s available.


💎 Affirmations for Receiving God’s Love

Speak these gently over yourself, beautiful soul:

  • I am a beloved child of God. 🤍
  • I do not have to earn the love that was already given to me.
  • God meets me in my darkness and walks with me into light.
  • I am never invisible to Heaven.
  • My kindness is not small — it is sacred.

Let these words settle where you need them.


📖 Bible Verse for Reflection

“Nothing can separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Romans 8:39 (NIV)

Not your doubts.
Not your mess.
Not your grief.
Not your past.

Nothing.


🎵 Song of the Day

“Love Is” by Jordan Feliz 🎶

🎧 Listen here

I’ve shared this song a few times because it truly is powerful. It’s one of those songs that doesn’t just sound good — it feels like truth. This is the first time on this blog.

This is what I think of when I think about the love I receive from the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Lyric “Love is walking through fire with you
Knows what you're going through
Love picks up the pieces
Love will lay down its life for you
So come on and run into
The open arms of Jesus
And see what love is (love is)
That's what love is (love is)
Look to Jesus, you will see what love is”

And yes — this song points to Jesus. Because scripture tells us the way to the Father is through the Son.

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” John 14:6 NIV

But what I want you to hear today isn’t pressure.

It’s invitation.

This song reminds me that love isn’t just a feeling.

Love is a Person.
Love is a Presence.
Love is God.

So, if you’ve been feeling unseen or alone… play it.
If you’ve been feeling unappreciated… play it.
If you’ve been feeling like you’re doing your best and it’s still not enough… play it.

And let it remind you:

You are held.
You are known.
You are loved.


🌸 Final Thoughts: The Love That Doesn’t Leave

February will keep being called the month of love. 💗
But the truth is, the deepest love isn’t seasonal.

God’s love is daily.

It’s available on the good days and the breaking days.
It’s available when your marriage feels strong and when it feels shaky.
It’s available when you feel faithful and when you feel tired.
It’s available when you don’t even know what to pray — but you whisper, “Help.”

And sometimes, that love will flow through you… into someone else.

Through a letter.
Through a gift.
Through a kind word.
Through a moment of compassion that you almost didn’t offer.

If you’ve ever wondered if God can use you, let me gently tell you:

Yes. He can.
Yes. He will.
And sometimes the very thing you think is “just who you are” — your softness, your empathy, your awareness, your compassion — is exactly what God has been shaping into purpose.

So, receive His love today, beautiful soul.

And when you feel led… give it away. 💛


With love and grace,
