Five Tips for Revitalizing Your Marriage
 
My experience in marriage guidance has shown me that loving care is needed to make your relationship grow. Like a garden, your marriage needs to be lovingly watered, cultivated and fed. Here are five tips to do help your marriage, and not have a need for marriage family counseling: 
 
  • Spend quality time each day with your partner - - - listening, laughing, looking into their eyes, treasuring them.
 
  • Tell them often why you appreciate them. Hearing these words from you will make a difference to your partner.
 
  • Do little acts of service - - - pampering them a bit, helping to do the things they want done.
 
  • Surprise them with a gift, a card, or a special treat each week!
 
  • Express your love often in a physical way - - - a tender touch, a hand squeeze, a soft kiss.
 
Everyday do one of these tips. Even if you feel like it is hopeless and at first your spouse reacts to them, you'll be surprised how much your partner will appreciate them. Most can be done in less than 15 minutes. (You probably spend that much time reading your junk mail.) Let me know after a month how these tips worked.
 

Learning to listen carefully and to respond wisely is key to having
good communication.

Listening openly is a beautiful way to love
and show respect.

Forgiving is necessary 
for keeping
your relationships vital.
