Emotional words are the engine that spins conversation into a roller coaster ride.
Words like “Always” and “Never” hint at extreme feelings of love or bitterness.
“You always give great presents,” vs “You always yell at me.” “You never compliment me,” vs “You’re never late.”
Neither are totally accurate. Neither paint a 100% true story. Both serve as an emotional hint of something deeper going on inside.
God’s use of “never” and “always” hint at His never-ending love for us. Thankfully they’re always 100% accurate.
