We have just concluded our 4 week teaching series on marriage, titled Wedding Vows. Many couples have shared that they now are refocusing on their spouse & that they weren't even aware of some "little" things that they have neglected in their marriage.
The book, Love Is a Decision, lists the following six elements as being essential to staying in love:
- Making your spouse feel truly honored
- Learning the art of touching—tenderly
- Keeping courtship alive in your marriage
- Re-opening a heart closed by anger
- Building—or rebuilding—trust in a relationship
- Becoming best friends with your family
Love as a feeling doesn't last very long & it certainly is not strong enough to hold a marriage together through every storm! Love does not just happen by luck or coincidence. Love is a Decision.
True love is waking up every day committed to honoring your mate by focusing on the six elements listed above. A great marriage is possible & is up to you.
Blessings!
Jeff
