When your spouse walks in, or walks out, pause what you’re doing. Look up. Move toward them. Kiss hello. Kiss goodbye. It sounds small, but relationship research consistently shows that brief moments of connection build trust, security, and emotional closeness over time. Priority is often communicated in seconds, not speeches. Stop. Drop. And roll (kiss). Small habit to keep the fire going! Do you and your spouse make an effort to do this?

Silly blooper video 😂 but it’s science. You might not need more time together—you might just need to put your phone down. It’s amazing how much more connected we feel just by looking into each other’s eyes and getting the devices out of the way. Send this to your spouse if you are ready to “tackle” the phone problem together. The weekend is a great time to start!

Messy doesn’t mean failing. It means you’re in it. Stay. Do the work. ✨ our life message: Messy Marriages marked by Mercy = Immeasurably More!

Like it or not our disconnection in marriage is rarely accidental, it’s either scheduled or unscheduled. Take a glance this week and ask yourself the honest question: is my marriage my top priority?
