RE: Love and marriage 38 - Romantic tips
Hello @hope777! Your name grabbed my attention because my favorite number is 7. I too am a Christian and I just love sharing about Him and His Word and sharing love around to people. I liked your ideas about romance. Marriage takes work and it should be done by both spouses. I recently did a post about striving to keep marriage thriving. It saddens me of the divorce rate and how soon a couple separates after marriage now. I have close friends and relatives that divorced in under 10 years so I appreciate you doing this series to give people ideas to keep romance in their marriages. My husband and I have done a few things on your list. We take showers together, go for walks holding hands (sometimes our 4 children are with us), give each other back rubs and he reads the Bible to me in the evenings and we discuss what was read. I love your idea about writing a story about how we met. We tell it verbally a lot but have never written it down with pictures. Nice meeting you and following now~ 😊
Hi @crosheille, thank you for the follow. I will take a look at your post also. Love and marriage is just my passion and love to write about it. I like to say I am a sucker for love. I suppose a hopeless romantic. I am so glad that you are keeping the romance going in your marriage. How long have you been married? The most wonderful thing is that your husband fulfills his role as the priest of his home and is reading the Bible to you. We also sometimes read together and pray hard together. We have found that their great strength in our prayers if we pray like that. Was also very nice to meet you. Please join my Bible doctrine Bible study that I just started today.
Lol I like that "hopeless romantic". I'm a sucker for love too. We have been married for 10 years going on 11 this November! It sure feels longer though because we have been friends since we were 12!!! 😃 He asked the Lord at age 12 who his wife would be and the Lord showed him it was me. He actually told me that and I got a little scared. I mean at age 12 who thinks about marriage? Well my husband did. I told him "well God didn't tell me that so it can't be true". So I guess it was because here we are 10 years later. How long have you been married? I would love to join your Bible study, I'll check it out! Thanks for the invite! 😀
I am thankful I married a God fearing man that leads our family as God would have him. I couldn't imagine it any other way. That's awesome that you pray hard together. Prayer sure changes things. I agree that prayer is important as is reading His Word together.
