One Thing to Grow Your Marriage Each DayPrzykład

They key to great romance

Devotional Content: 

Do you know how to make sure the romantic thing you are doing for your spouse is really romantic? This is not rocket science—just ask your spouse! My dad was a romantic. He did so many things for my mom that she loved. So when I entered into marriage, I had a long list of romantic things to do for Nancy. Yet, there was one problem: Everything I did for Nancy was not always received the way I intended. I thought something was wrong with her! 

It took me a little too long to figure out that what my mom thought was romantic and what Nancy thought was romantic were often different. My mom’s love language was gifts, and Nancy’s is quality time. Nancy liked the gifts I bought, but when I set aside time each day to spend with her, that was when she really felt loved. That was romance for her. Think about it this way: If you are going to carve out time, put out effort, or spend money to be romantic, why not be sure you hit a home run? 

Today’s One Thing: Ask your spouse one thing they consider romantic—then do it!
