January eZine: The Pillars of a Strong Marriage
LET'S KICK THINGS OFF…
We've mentioned these before, but there are 4 key pillars to an amazing marriage.
>Commitment
>Communication
>Companionship
>Closeness
This month, we are sharing an article for each of the 4 pillars, and how to start implementing them.
JANUARY ARTICLE # 2: SECOND PILLAR —COMMUNICATION
COMMUNICATION — It is essential. If you can’t talk about things, you won’t be able to address any trouble that comes up. As you evaluate your marital relationship and how well you relate, here are some things to focus on.
JANUARY ARTICLE #3: THIRD PILLAR—COMPANIONSHIP
We’ve all heard it said that you want to marry your best friend. It’s an assumption that we all make. Of course, you arebest friends before you get married right?
Why is it, then, that so many couples grow so distant over the years? Why does a life-long, deepening friendship with the one we’ve chosen to spend our life with seem to be the exception and not the norm?
JANUARY ARTICLE #4: FOURTH PILLAR—CLOSENESS
Sex alone cannot and never will be the foundation of a great marriage. Nevertheless, when your relationship is going well, there’s no doubt that sex will not only be good but be a powerful glue that bonds you together and builds real strength into your marriage. That makes a great sex life something worth fighting for. Here are some great suggestions to help you improve your closeness.
DR. DAVE'S TIP OF THE MONTH
Pray every morning—“God, help me to love my mate.” Then, spend the rest of your day trying to be your own answer to prayer. Love freely. Interested in More DFR eZines?
