Five More Ways to Grow Closer as a Couple
I’d like to share the opening entry to my marriage devotional The Healthy Marriage Devotional: 365 Daily Inspirations to Bring You Closer Together.
Author Gary Smalley has officiated a lot of weddings. He uses an unique illustration to help couples understand the nature of their relationship.
Midway through the ceremony, he’d gesture to the beautiful flowers adorning the ceremony and say to the couple, “You probably believe the garland, the boutonnieres, and the bridal bouquet represent your love — vibrant and in full bloom.” Then he’d reach into his pocket and hand the bride and groom a packet of seeds.
“It’s actually more like this,” he’d say. “A seed is filled with potential that can only be discovered if it’s given the right elements — sun, water, good soil, and time. Likewise, your relationship is filled with the potential to be more than it already is, but it’s hidden within mysteries that only reveal themselves over time as you nurture your love.”
