My friend's marriage is having a hard time
How Can I Help?Ask your friend to look at the areas of friendship in the marriage and to build on that friendship. Friendship is a way back into a state of joy and warmth in those times of stress. Another helpful hint from Conjugial Love is to "fake it until you make it." While this can feel counterintuitive, when a person acts in a loving way toward his or her spouse, it creates an opening for the true love to return. A third way to revive love in a marriage is to rededicate and turn anew to the Lord, asking for insight in what might shift in the relationship for improvement. While marriage is from the Lord, it is a process of two people, who are far from perfect, trying to live in harmony. We shouldn’t despair when we hit bumps in the road. |
