Avoiding problems will magnify them. This is a simple but important activity to help you openly address them.
(Danny & Daniela Kovacs)
BENEFITS of this ACTIVITY:
Better CommunicationWhen you communicate openly and honestly with your spouse, you embody the Biblical ideals of truthfulness and sincerity (Ephesians 4:15). Just as James advises being quick to listen and slow to speak, engaging in discussions about marital challenges provides an opportunity to demonstrate patience and understanding (James 1:19). Through this, you cultivate empathy and deepen your connection, placing an emphasis on love and unity within marriage (1 Corinthians 13:4-7).
|
Increased Self-AwarenessThe Bible encourages individuals to examine themselves and strive for personal improvement (2 Corinthians 13:5). By identifying tension points and corresponding disciplines, the two of you embark on a journey of self-awareness guided by Biblical wisdom. Through prayerful reflection and intentional actions, you align your lives with Biblical principles, fostering personal and relational growth in line with God's design for marriage (Ephesians 5:25-28).
|
Spiritual GrowthPrioritizing spiritual growth within marriage echoes the Biblical call to seek God's kingdom above all else (Matthew 6:33). Recognizing the interconnectedness of spiritual disciplines underscores the significance of honoring the sacred covenant of marriage (Ephesians 5:21-33). By God's grace, such unity sustains you through trials and strengthens your relationship in Christ (Colossians 3:14-17).
