We had already wrapped, but God wasn’t done. He will always take us deeper. Have you ever struggled to say, “Father, I receive Your love,” or even, “I love You”? Hope did — and that struggle revealed a block she didn’t even realize was there. In this conversation, we open up about what it means when our hearts resist expressing or receiving God’s love, and how even simple words can expose something buried deep. We talk about how love has become so overused in our culture — “I love pizza, I love this show” — that we’ve lost touch with what true, holy love feels like. But God’s love isn’t a phrase. It’s an encounter. It’s an experience that transforms us from the inside out. Nikki shares what happens when we can say “I love You” to God, but struggle to believe He loves us back. And together, we unpack what it looks like to let His love wash over us — without filters, performance, or fear. In this overflow, we dive into: The emotional and spiritual block behind “I love You, God” Why love isn’t just a word — it’s an encounter How to ask, “God, how do I define love?” Learning to remove filters that distort how we receive His love Remembering that when your foundation is strong, even steps that look backward are still forward in Him If you’ve been walking with God and still feel something holding you back — if you long to feel His presence more deeply and experience His love freely — this message is for you. God isn’t waiting for you to say the perfect words. He’s waiting for your heart to open, even just a little bit. Sometimes the breakthrough comes not from striving, but from simply whispering, “Father, I receive Your love… and I love You too.” Grab your coffee or find a quiet moment — this overflow conversation will remind you that His love doesn’t need to be earned or filtered. It just needs to be received.
