Men of the world, if you don't get anything else out of these 40 days, get this..."Really listen to them when they share personal thoughts and struggles with you. Make them feel safe." Give your wife a few minutes of your day to download. Either look her in the eyes or hold her close while she is talking to you. Turn off the TV, the computer, put your phone on vibrate. Don't give any advice, unless she asks for it. Allow her to feel safe about sharing her feelings with you.Today's Dare: Determine to guard your mate's secrets (unless they are dangerous to them or to you) and pray for them. Talk with your spouse and resolve to demonstrate love in spite of these issues. Really listen to them when they share personal thoughts and struggles with you. Make them feel safe.
Women are starved for personal intimacy. Women need to talk and share their feelings and we need to feel like we can share with our mates. If you give your wife/girlfriend a few minutes of your time each day I can promise you that she will feel closer to you and you will reap the benefits.
No kids. No phone. No TV. Just the two of you connecting on a deeper level. Your mate will feel loved if you spare a few minutes to focus in on her and her thoughts. Make this time a priority. Schedule it, put in a reminder on your phone. Show her love in a way that might be uncomfortable for you, but in a way that she will appreciate.
