Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Things You’ll Need:

• A marriage
• Communication

1. Communication is the key ingredient to helping a marriage flourish. Without it, it will not survive.
2. Try making it a point to go on a date or get some alone time at least once a week. Too much time apart can negatively affect a marriage. You do need to catch up with each other in the midst of kids, jobs, etc.
3. Do something nice for each other maybe an extra chore or buying a just because card, anything to keep a spark in the marriage.
4. Physical intimacy is important in a marriage. This doesn't have to be done every day to prove your marriage is strong, do it enough that it helps your marriage stay passionate and only if you want to do it. Forcing it because you feel you have to will negatively affect your marriage as well.
5. Agree to disagree, this is the best way you can move on in your marriage. Arguing or fighting over the same issues over and over again is pointless and raises problems in the marriage.
6. Do things together that you enjoy and once in a while do things the other spouse enjoys and maybe you don't. It's nice to take turns in this area to show you are interested in being with each other no matter what.
7. Prayer and God is the most important things that can make the marriage thrive. Without it being number one, a marriage will sink!
