3 Questions that are GUARANTEED to Improve Your Marriage

3
little
questions
that
are GUARANTEED
to improve your marriage.

Who wouldn't want that??
I've been married for almost 10 years {how is that even possible?!?!} and I am proud to say that my husband and I work hard to have a good marriage.  We make time for each other, we talk to each other, we enjoy being together and we celebrate with each other.  It's tough to do those things now that we're parents, but I know it's worth it.
We've moved 5 times, lived in 4 different cities, had a variety of jobs, gone to grad school, adopted 2 cats and had a baby girl.  Lots of exciting things, lots of day to day life and a few tough times in between.  We are better off because of this adventure we call LIFE.

Without further adieu,
Here are the 3 little questions that will make a BIG difference in your marriage:

1. What can I do to help you?
 This always makes me feel loved and helps me to remember that we are a TEAM in life.  I'm not great at asking for help so I really appreciate this one.  It's guaranteed to put on a smile on my face and makes me feel like any task is doable.

2. How can I pray for / encourage you?
It's always nice to know that someone has your back and is praying for you.

3. What's your day like tomorrow?
We always end up talking about our work/home current events that we could use some encouragement to take on and work through important things.  It helps us to map out our time and gives us an idea of what is planned for the day.  Plus, we always feel like we know what is going on in each others lives because we communicate.


These questions will start great dialogue, encourage conversation and help you to feel close to your spouse.  I'm sure there are more questions that I could add, but these are the ones we use consistently.  Find the questions that work best for you or tailor these to meet your needs and your marriage will benefit!
