Working busy jobs, managing our home, and raising children all make bids for our attention. As a couple, we can easily drift apart because we are going in opposite directions.
Before long we are singing, “You’ve lost that lovin’ feeling, now it’s gone, gone, gone!”
How do we turn toward each other?
- Express what you appreciate about each other.
- Send each other a fun, encouraging text message.
- Take a walk together and share your hopes and dreams for the future.
- Listen to understand each other.
- Learn something new about each other.
Each time we intentionally turn toward each other, we hear the Love Bank sound cha-ching! So pause the busy! Take a walk together. Reach out and hold each other’s hands. Try a new restaurant together.
Turn toward the one your heart chose! The rest of the world can wait! Your marriage is worth it!
