Daily Habits Of Marital Intimacy - 10 Day Reading PlanSample

Day 4: Spiritual Intimacy

In developing your spiritual intimacy with God, create a “sit place” with God. This “sit place” is a visual or actual place where you sit with God and dialogue with Him about all that matters to you throughout the day. Your prayer life is your dialog with Him. He desires to hear your voice and wants you to hear His voice. Your personal intimacy with God will overflow into your shared intimacy with your partner.

Whether you are just beginning your US journey, or have been enjoying your relationship for many seasons, it is important to create your US intimacy with God first. To desire a strong, loving relationship, it is important that everything concerning your marriage flow from this spiritual center. 

Sharing spiritually deepens your connection with your partner. As you share with him or her about what God is showing you in your struggles and joys and then listen to his or her heart as to what God is doing in him or her, it will deepen and strengthen you both spiritually. 

Reflection: Your commitment to developing a personal relationship with God is your greatest investment in your marriage. Sharing spiritually through conversations and your shared vision and mission as well as praying together will create a beautiful love story. Consider in what ways can you be more effective in your prayers, conversations, and or service to others. Take all of the grace and help of Jesus to make strong your US spiritual intimacy.
