Deep emotions express themselves through our body language. Hiding what lies beneath the surface doesn\u2019t always work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIt can\u2019t be that bad,\u201d the stranger said, walking past me while I worked. Startled, I didn\u2019t realize my facial expression revealed so much about my inward emotions. Tired after a long day of travel and hours spent re-merchandising the men\u2019s Nautica shop in one of my largest stores, the exhaustion showed on my face. To this day, I still remember that moment and all it taught me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our faces reveal more than we think. According to experts, body language represents 70-93% of our body language. Look beyond people\u2019s words and pay attention to their nonverbal communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rejoice with those who rejoice and grieve with those who grieve. Share in people\u2019s journeys. Join them in their joy and sorrow as you become more alert to their body language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cheerful or sorrowful, God cares for all.<\/p>\n\n\n Lord, forgive us for missing out on people\u2019s expressions. Help us become more alert to body language, allowing us to join the celebration or share in the suffering. Let us connect with people as we engage in their joys and sorrows. IJNIP.
