HOW TO STRENGTHEN YOUR MARRIAGE:

• START EVERY DAY WITH A KISS
  Begin your day with love.
  
• ALWAYS WEAR YOUR WEDDING RING
  It is a visual reminder of your commitment.
  
• GO ON A DATE WITH YOUR MATE ONCE A WEEK
  Dedicate some time just for the two of you even if you just go out for coffee.
  
• ACCEPT EACH OTHERS DIFFERENCES
  Remember when you thought your spouses "idiosyncrasies" were so cute and adorable? Chances of changing them now are slim, so decide to live with them.
  
• BE POLITE
  Always practice your best manners at home. Are you more polite to co-workers or strangers than to the one you love?

  Choose to be kind to the one you love and who loves you. Eliminate from your home all harsh and unkind words and actions.

  It doesn't matter who's right, and nobody should be keeping score. Saying I'm sorry and forgive me is like saying "I love you."

There is nothing else like the Word of God is to strengthen your bonds of marriage and your walk together with the Lord. Try it an see!
