Staying Connected Emotionally

Loneliness can occur in marriage even though you sleep in the same bed each night you might realise you are still distance apart, you feel more intimate with your friends and colleagues at work than with your spouse.

Check to see if most of the communication between you and your spouse centre mainly on official household matters such as finances, bills, holiday, children, and family members? Or do you find out that communication on matters relating to you and your spouse are usually very official, shallow and short lived?

Let’s take you back a little to the time you were courting and wooing each other, remember how romantic you were and the great fun you had discussing together. It will interest you to find out that the things that brought great joy, and solidified your relationship were not the most serious issues but the seemingly trivial issues.

Do not forget those things that bring fun into your marriage, those simple things that strongly connect you together emotionally and bring you really closer to each other.

Stir yourselves up in this area again and watch God transform your marriage.
