A loving doe and a graceful deer— let her breasts satisfy you at all times. Be captivated always with her love.
Proverbs 5:19 · Love
Reflection 2
Start today by looking at your spouse with fresh eyes. Notice something specific about them and say it out loud—a compliment, a thank you, a simple 'I'm glad I married you.' Put the phone down, make eye contact, and really listen.
Reflection 3
Delight is as much a choice as a feeling, and feelings tend to follow your focus. If you dwell on your spouse's flaws, love cools. But when you deliberately dwell on their best qualities, affection grows right along with it.
Reflection 4
In a world full of distractions and temptations, being captivated by your own spouse is a form of protection. Guard your marriage by investing in it daily—small, consistent acts of attention are what keep a wandering heart at home.
Prayer
Dear Lord, thank You for the gift of love. Help me to cherish and delight in my spouse with fresh eyes today, choosing them again in both word and action. Keep my heart faithful and full of wonder for the one You've given me. Amen.
