Hello my friends,
My husband Jonathan and myself want to give you ideas of how to treat one another in your marriages. It is the small things that count in a relationship.Even as small as just a touch.
Here are some examples-
When you caress your spouse's hand, play with
their feet, rub their shoulders, or stroke their
cheek, there's a moment there (if you do it
RIGHT) when your spouse knows that you are
completely connected with them. Fill your
marriage with a few of those moments each day and
your relationship will begin to change.
Now I don't want to leave you hanging...wondering
what you're going to say and how you're going to
touch. I figure if there's 50 ways to leave your
lover, there must be at least as many ways to
touch them or talk to them. So here's my "50
ways" list. Don't be overwhelmed. I created 50 so
you would have options. Once again, my challenge
to you is to pick 2; in the next 24 hours do 1
Talk Charge and 1 Touch Charge.
50 WAYS TO TALK AND TOUCH LIST
1. Express confidence in one of your spouse's
decisions
