Inside every marriage lies a secret weapon that can rescue even the most fractured relationships - gratitude. Don't let yourself stay trapped in the status quo; transform your marriage one thank you at a time. In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it's easy to overlook the significance of expressing appreciation towards our partners. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Are they fairytale ones that have you all googly eyes and heart-pounding moments? Probably not! You are spinning your wheels, running around like a chicken with your head cut off, or simply sitting in a corner giving yourself an "oh woes me" party. What if you slowed down to actually see and hear your spouse? What if you made a point every day to express your appreciation for their presence? Taking the time to cultivate a spirit of gratitude within a marriage works wonders in strengthening the bond between spouses, fostering mutual respect, and nurturing a lasting love that can weather any storm. You will be amazed at what gratitude does for your marriage. "Gratitude is the cornerstone of a fulfilling and joyful relationship. It's like watering a garden; when you nourish it with appreciation, love blooms and grows stronger." ~ Kristianne Wargo So, if you want a stronger marriage, nourish it with appreciation. The K.I.S.S. ~ Nourish your marriage with appreciation! To facilitate the growth of gratitude and fortify the foundation of love in your marriage, here are three actionable steps that Kristianne Wargo recommends: 1. RENEW - Start Each Day with a Thank You: Embrace the power of mornings by setting the tone for the day ahead with a sincere expression of gratitude towards your spouse. Whether it's a simple "Thank you for making breakfast" or a heartfelt acknowledgment of their support, starting the day on a positive note can create a ripple effect of warmth and appreciation throughout the day. "A grateful heart sets the stage for a harmonious day. By beginning each morning with a genuine thank you, you lay the groundwork for a day filled with love and connection." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. RESTORE - Celebrate Small Moments: In the journey of marriage, it's often the little things that matter the most. Take the time to celebrate small moments of joy and kindness shared between you and your spouse. Whether it's a spontaneous hug, a shared laughter over a cup of coffee, a text, or a thoughtful gesture, acknowledging and appreciating these fleeting moments can strengthen the emotional connection between partners. "Celebrating small moments of love and joy enriches the tapestry of your marriage. When you notice and appreciate these moments, you weave a bond of gratitude that sustains your marriage through ups and downs." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. REVIVE - Express Gratitude Through Actions: While words have the power to uplift and inspire, actions speak volumes in the language of love. Show your appreciation for your spouse through thoughtful gestures, acts of service, and loving deeds that convey your gratitude in tangible ways. Whether it's preparing their favorite meal, surprising them with a handwritten note, or lending a helping hand without being asked, actions rooted in gratitude speak louder than words. "Actions fueled by gratitude demonstrate the depth of your love and appreciation for your partner. When you strive to show gratitude through your deeds, you create a bond that is resilient and unwavering." ~ Kristianne Wargo "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." ~ 1 Thessalonians 5:18 Embracing a spirit of gratitude within your marriage not only enriches your relationship but also nourishes your soul with love and blessings. Learn to love deep and well; it only takes one thank you at a time. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"   #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?
