Being consistent is either your strength…
or
it’s a weakness.
But if you’re consistent in only ONE area of your marriage
make it LOVE.
Every day is a new day to love your spouse.
When you wake up in the morning, know that today is a day
you can,
you’re able,
it’s possible
to love your spouse.
Sometimes, after a while in marriage, we lose perspective. Other things may appear to become more important than loving your spouse.
Perspective check:
How can we love our spouse?
There’s a great book which Robert and I recommend to everyone: “The Five Love Languages” by Gary Chapman. If you’d like an overview, take a look at this post.

Hi Lori – We shouldn’t need a reminder to love our spouse every day. But,sadly, many of us do. At least I do! Thanks for the reminder and encouragement.
Thank you for your lovely post. Amen! I just finished reading a brand new book I hope will bless everyone as it has blessed me. It’s called “The Wholehearted Wife: 10 Keys to a More Loving Relationship,” by Erin, Greg and Gary Smalley. It is centered on ME aligning myself with God and what he wants from me as a wife. Biblical, inspirational, affirming. One of my favorite quotes is, “If you want to have a more loving relationship with your husband, remember that he’s a gift from God, a treasured possession – just as you are. As a Wholehearted wife, seek to honor him each day by cherishing him and affirming his value. Treat him like a Stradivarius!” I highly recommend it!
