To have a better marriage, both partners must be good listeners and talkers. It may sound simple, but it’s not always easy to put into practice. God has given us two ears to hear and one mouth to speak for a reason – He wants us to listen twice as much as we talk! However, many of us struggle with this balance in our daily conversations.

One key factor in healthy communication is maintaining a positive attitude, and avoiding negative body language or tone of voice that can detract from the message being conveyed. Remembering to treat others how you would like to be treated is an essential part of building strong relationships through effective communication. If we all make an effort to improve our listening skills and approach conversations with kindness and respect, we can create happier marriages and stronger connections with those around us. ~ Bill Greguska

How Can My Marriage Be Restored Through Faith?


 

A Better Marriage Is Not Built Overnight!

Let’s be honest, having a better marriage starts with healthy communication. To achieve healthy communication, one must be both a good listener and a talker. It is very important to remember the wisdom of God who gave us two ears to hear and only one mouth to speak. It’s essential to listen twice as much as we talk if we want our marriages to thrive. However, this isn’t always easy; many people struggle in this area all the time, myself included! Nevertheless, good communication involves various factors that everyone needs to realize.

If you desire a better marriage, try your best always to have a positive attitude when communicating with your partner. Ensure you make eye contact and use an upbeat tone of voice while speaking because these things can significantly impact how well you communicate with each other. Also, remember always to treat your spouse like you would want them to treat you – with kindness, respect, and love! So let’s commit ourselves today towards building healthier communication habits in our relationships for the sake of our marriages’ longevity!
