Everyone's relationships have ebbs and flows. In my field I hear of the ebbs more than the flows. So, how do you bring that life, that spark back into your relationship and ignite the power to move forward into a future that is worth hoping for?

1. Never take today for granted.

2. Always remember that your needs are just one part of the relationship.

3. Think compassionate thoughts of your partner daily.

4. Speak frankly about your feeling, but own them, without disguising them as an outward expression. Example: Having a bad day sulking when he comes home. Simply tell him you had a bad day and you need him to help you with whatever it is you're dealing with.  He or she is your partner, right?

5. Lastly, be thankful to God for your life. Make a list daily of all the things you have as a result of sowing good seed.

I pray you have a wonderful Easter.
