MEETING EXPECTATIONS CREATES MARITAL HAPPINESS!!!

The SIMPLE REASON for MARITAL HAPPINESS is EXPECTATIONS are being REQUESTED and MET!

Whenever there is an UNHAPPY MARRIAGE, the reverse is true, and EXPECTATIONS are NOT BEING FULFILLED!

Within a HAPPY MARRIAGE, BOTH SPOUSES regularly REQUEST REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS because that is ESSENTIAL for HAPPINESS and EMOTIONAL INTIMACY!!!

SEXUAL INTIMACY AND MARRIAGE ARE CONNECTED!!!

SEXUAL INTIMACY and MARRIAGE can’t be placed in 2 different compartments.

Sexual intimacy and marriage are very much INTERCONNECTED for MARITAL HAPPINESS!

Sexual intimacy is NOT JUST for physical pleasure, but more IMPORTANTLY it is a way of DEMONSTRATING LOVE for a STRONGER EMOTIONAL CONNECTION!

HAPPY MARITAL COUPLES SLEEP TOGETHER!

Many UNHAPPY MARRIAGES are due to one SPOUSE having UNHEALTHY SLEEP HABITS, like STAYING UP LATE or NOT SLEEPING TOGETHER.

NOT SLEEPING TOGETHER also leads to an EMOTIONAL DISCONNECT and that often produces a TROUBLED MARRIAGE and SEXUAL INTIMACY PROBLEMS.

A husband and wife SLEEPING IN BED TOGETHER is a SIGN OF COMMITMENT and STRENGTHENS a RELATIONSHIP!

GUIDELINE: IS THIS DECISION IRREVERSIBLE, IMMORAL, OR ILLEGAL?

PARENTAL GUIDELINE: IS THIS DECISION IRREVERSIBLE, IMMORAL, OR ILLEGAL?

Parents often struggle with ALLOWING A MINOR CHILD (under the age of majority) TO MAKE A CRITICAL CHOICE. One EXCELLENT GUIDELINE that can help a parent decide with a CHILD’S REQUEST is to ask, IS THIS DECISION IRREVERSIBLE, IMMORAL, OR ILLEGAL?

Definitely, the Three “I” words can help a parent make a healthy decision!

IN EVERY HAPPY MARRIAGE POLITENESS REIGNS SUPREME!!!

In every HAPPY MARRIAGE POLITENESS REIGNS SUPREME!!!

By being EXTRA-POLITE with each other, spouses ADD RESPECT, TRUST, and COURTEOUSNESS to their relationship, while at the same time STRENGTHENING their EMOTIONAL INTIMACY and the “ONENESS” God wants for every marriage.

TELL A CHILD "YOU HAVE A TERRIFIC ATTITUDE"!!!

TELL A CHILD "YOU HAVE A TERRIFIC ATTITUDE"!!!

The 2 words “TERRIFIC” and “Terrible” are OPPOSITE in their meaning, yet the ONLY DIFFERENCE in those words are the last 3 letters.

DAILY PARENTS GET TO tell their child “YOU HAVE A TERRIFIC ATTITUDE and watch them develop a POSITIVE ATTITUDE!!!

THE TONGUE HAS THE POWER OF LIFE & DEATH!!!

Proverbs 18:21 declares, “The TONGUE has the POWER of LIFE and DEATH.”

WORDS ARE POWERFUL!!! Never underestimate the importance of APPRECIATION-PRAISE and GRATITUDE-THANK YOU!

Nurturing words VALUE A SPOUSE, while a lack of appreciation devalues a partner. TWO HEALTHY SPOUSES are both “GOOD FINDERS” and almost DAILY PRAISE and COMPLIMENT EACH OTHER
