COUPLES – How To Show Respect To Your Spouse – Part 2

What are the practical ways to show respect to yourselves in marriage?

1. Know that your spouse is so very special before God. Your spouse is bought with the precious blood of Jesus. Jesus would have come to die for your spouse alone.

2. Do not yell at your spouse. You may be angry but never yell.

3. Allow freedom of expression. It is okay to be different. That’s why you married in the first place. Men and women are meant to be different.

4. Let your spouse feel safe, secure, and trusted by building mutual respect.

5. When you have opposing opinions which will happen most times, you listen. Your listening shows respect.

6. Respect that your spouse is worth listening to. He/ she has something vital to bring to the table.

7. Allow healthy space when it is needed, it shows respect. Let your spouse be by him/herself, have her own friends, her own things etc

8. Do not control one another. Your relationship is unhealthy when there is the slightest control. God asks us to love, not control. Jesus never controlled the church.

9. Both spouses should admit once they are wrong and sincerely seek forgiveness. Swallow your pride and admit you are wrong and apologize.

10. Never treat one another shabbily, in private or public. Show appreciation for every little thing your spouse does. Don’t take each other for granted.

God bless our marriage.
