DAY 5: 30-Day Intimacy Challenge for Christian Marriages

DAY 5

Challenge: Gratitude Night

Each of you write down five things you appreciate about your spouse and share them over a dinner or before bed. Your spouse needs encouragement! We are put together to raise each other up and one of the best ways you can do that is appreciate them. Let go of the flaws and imperfections and focus on what you appreciate about your spouse.

Bible Verse:

1 Thessalonians 5:18, " give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus."

Reflection Questions:

1. How does gratitude shift your perspective on your marriage?

2. What is one challenge in marriage that you can choose to be grateful for?

Prayer:

Dear Heavenly Father,

Fill my heart with thanksgiving for my spouse. Show to me clearly the things i appreciate about them and help me to appreciate my spouse. Work in my heart to not focus on the things that my spouse lacks and instead have a deeper appreciation and love for the ways my spouse is amazing.

In Jesus Name, Amen
