Building a healthy relationship is like building and maintaining a house. A lot of things are involved in order to enjoy it. I’v decided to share with you 5 points that will help you in your relationship.
- BUILD IT ON A FIRM FOUNDATION (TRUST): Just like a building, the foundation determines how long it will last and also the competency of the builder will also tell if the building will last. So also in relationship, you need God as ur builder. Allow him to build your relationship and also build trust. You must learn to trust each other to the extent that nothing/nobody can feed you lies about your partner.
- PAY YOUR DUES: Relationship is not cheap. You must be ready to pay your dues. Your dues are the sacrifices, commitment, love, gifts and affection that relationship demands. Be ready to pay it in full.
- KEEP YOUR GRASS OUT, SO YOU CAN SEE SNAKES: You also need to be aware of unfriendly friends, who are not happy with your relationship. They may hide under friendship but they aint any friend. Allow God to help you choose friends who will help you and your relationship.
- LOCK YOUR DOOR TO KEEP STRANGERS OUT: Beware of strangers that you allow into your relationship. It is not everybody that must know what is happening in your relationship. Even if you have challenges, face it and don’t facebook it. Mind the things you reveal on social networks and the friends you keep on social networks.
- MAINTAIN AND RENOVATE: Just like a building, you need to maintain and possibly renovate in order to keep the facilities intact. In relationship, you also need to maintain and renew the love and commitment you have towards your significant other. Let the feeling of love be on point. Some things may not be working out or perhaps challenges may show up but u must rise to the occasion and ensure you work things out.
Wishing you a healthy relationship!
