Kissing Couples

Here's a challenge for you today. Kiss your spouse for at least 15 seconds three times today. Try this: when they leave for work, when they come home from work and right before bed.

He Will Restore

Nobody's growing old together, we've made it easy just to quit.
Love has become a negative percentage, why do we bother to commit.We've got a long list of excuses, ways we try to justify
Well, I propose to you the truth is, marriage does not have to die.I know you're feeling like it’s falling apart and it can't go on anymore.
But God is a God who knows how to heal so just give it up to the Lord...and He will restore. ~ Chris August, He Will Restore

Unconditional Love

In what ways does your husband need an "extra dose" of grace? Where does your husband need a covering of grace from you?

-If he has sinned against you, forgive him...over and over.
-If he has violated your trust in some serious way, show your love by getting help from a pastor or professional Christian counselor.
-If he is experiencing failure, let him know that you will stand with him, no matter what.
-If he is experiencing a pressure point in his life, perhaps at work or in a decision he must make, encourage him with understanding and by praying for him.

Whatever his weaknesses may be, remind him that God and you love him and that both of you are with him even during hard times.


Team "Us"

As husband and wife, the two of you are a team. As with any other team, you must put in the time and effort for growth and development. Most teams have practice times, a mission statement or motto, times they practice, a plan of action, and a vision of winning the championship. As Team (insert your last name), do the two of you take time to connect on a regular basis? Do you sit down and debrief after being away from one another all day? What is your family's mission statement or motto? What plan of action do you have to carry out the vision God has given you for your marriage and family? And finally, what steps are you taking to win the championship...which is oneness? #hishelpmeet
