7 Ways to be Your Spouse’s BEST FRIEND

7.  Pray for your spouse every day.  

Jude 1:20

But you, dear friends, must build each other up in your most holy faith, pray in the power of the Holy Spirit,[a]

There will be days that we are upset with our spouses, and sometimes we may not be “feeling it” for them.  These are the very times we need to lean on prayer the most.  Pray that God will bless your spouse, touch his/her heart, and strengthen your marriage.  It is amazing how God will soften our hearts towards our spouses when we are praying specifically for them.  I would encourage you to pray WITH your spouse as well.  If praying every day seems overwhelming, try to pray weekly.  Don’t be consumed by the specifics.  Just. Start. Praying.

You will be amazed at how God blesses you and your spouse when you both foster a deep and lasting friendship as part of the foundation of your marriage.

If you consider your spouse your very best friend, tag him/her  in this post and let him/her know it!
