Have you ever thought of how to make your spouse happy always? Yes you can make it happen. It boils down to cultivating good habits that will have positive impact on your spouse.
It is only a happy spouse that can make a happy marriage. What you are as an individual will overflow to your relationship.
Let me quickly share four powerful phrases with you that can change the atmosphere for good in your home.
I Love you deeply
You may be used to saying, ’I love you’ to your spouse. Can I encourage you to spice it up and say it differently from today? I love the way the bible says, ‘Husbands, love your wives’. Ephesians 5:25
There is no way you can love someone and not say it. Some men claim to show their love but find it difficult to say it. This is not right at all. Women love to hear their men express their love to them verbally and in all ways.
You can say words like:
I love you deeply.
I love you more each day.
Don’t ever get tired of saying it and if possible look into the eyes of your spouse when you do, so you can see the way his or her eyes light up.
I appreciate you
Another phrase you must say regularly to your spouse is, ’I appreciate/value you greatly’.
Everyone loves to be appreciated especially by their loved ones. Make it a point of duty to appreciate your spouse always. A person you appreciate will always want to do more the next day. We should never be so familiar with our spouses that we forget to value them for being in our lives.
In other to always make your spouse happy, you must learn to appreciate him or her in words and deeds.
I am deeply sorry
I know of a generation of men who don’t know how to say sorry to their spouses. Don’t belong to that generation. For you to experience peace, you must learn to say sorry, not only to your spouse but to anyone who feels hurt by you.
Sometimes we hurt people unintentionally, no matter what happens, we must learn to say sorry. There is a way you apologize and the offended will feel you don’t mean it. Don’t be like that. You see, making your home a heaven on earth starts with you.
How to make your home heaven on earth
It begins with how you treat your spouse. You cannot make your spouse happy always and not be the first partaker of that happiness. What you sew, you reap abundantly.
How may I be of assistance to you?
This is more like saying, ’how may I help you?’ Sometimes your spouse may need your assistance and expect you to know. You don’t need to wait for your spouse to call out for your help before you offer it.
You can take it a step further by always asking how you can be of help to your spouse.
