Connecting
If you’re like most couples, learning to connect didn’t come as naturally as you expected it to. The fact is, it’s a challenge to remain connected with someone when you’re used to them being around day in and day out. You may talk, but true connection is much more than good communication.
The only real way to be “immune from failure” is to prepare and ensure a good connection is regularly maintained. Gain a healthy respect for your spouse and set up time for connecting, but remain flexible.
Active connecting—not just talking, but showing each other the relationship is primary—takes commitment and acceptance when things don’t go as planned. If you’re committed to connecting and can allow your perspective to be changed, your relationship will reap the rewards.
When you want something—a deeper connection, greater knowledge of your spouse—the Bible says to ask God.
What personal requests concerning your relationship does your spouse have today? What are yours?
What would be an easy way to establish openness in this area together?
Does prayer factor into your intentional connection times now? Why or why not?
Listen to prayer |
Find peace, purpose and strength with Jesus in prayer.
