Marriage Saving Advice: How To Have A Soul Connection With Your Spouse - part 1

by Keishia Lee-Louis

Is Your Marriage in Trouble?

Many of us realize that marriage is not the easiest relationship in the world, but why is it so hard? Unless we adopt children, the only relatives that we get to choose are our spouses. Seems like it should work out, right? We can not change our parents or choose new siblings, but marriage-- ahh that's a whole different thing.

Marriage brings out the best and the worst in a person's character and shows us what we are capable of doing, both positive and negative. This special relationship challenges our mental, spiritual, social, and physical selves. Unfortunately, the natural human reaction to hard or stressful situations is fight or flight.

So after a few major disagreements with a spouse, frustrated partners second guess their initial decision to wed. The wheels start turning, and the flight response to the stressful situation becomes more and more attractive.

But what can you do if the fires of passion have burned out and only angry ones remain? How can you keep your soul connection with your spouse even during times of conflict?

Put an end to the stress and anxiety of not knowing what to do to save your troubled marriage! And discover proven methods to getting your marriage back on track.
Even if you are the only one who wants to work on it!
Check it out now!

1. Have confidence in the decision that you have made. Then realize that just like you wouldn't normally divorce your mom or dad when they get on your last nerve, divorcing your spouse shouldn't be the first thing that comes to mind when he/she annoys or disappoints you you repeatedly. I know it's hard, but it's a key factor in the success of your marriage.

2. If God is not at the center of your relationship, consider welcoming Him into the situation. To start, only one spouse needs to make this decision, but it's best if both of you are on the same page. Praying together, and as individuals, can provide a solid foundation for your marriage and give you greater insight into what concerns your partner the most.

You can start with your own words or with a few books on prayer. A book that has been helpful for me, and numerous people I know, has been, Stormie Omartian: Power of a Praying Wife. The book covers everything from finances and career to sexuality, affection and emotions. It shows wives how to pray for their husbands even if they feel like they don't have the words. And it gives excellent advice for channeling frustration, hurt or anger into productive energy.

If you are a husband, try Power of a Praying Husband. Stormie enlists the help of her husband and other men for insight and wisdom in writing this book.

Okay men, I really need some advice to save my marriage?
I love my husband dearly but something's slowly changed. We've been married for a little over a year and he doesn't seem to want me anymore. I'll admit, I"ve gained almost 10 lbs since we got married, but I'm still a very pretty woman, and I'm very sexual. I don't know how many more times I can take being rejected with my hand in his pants. I'll be 21 in less than 2 weeks, and he's almost 25 but I feel like I'm old already! Can't have sex, hubby's too tired, or he wants to play video games, or talk to his stupid friends on the phone. I can try to seduce him all day long but nothing will come of it. Then he waits till I'm asleep to break out the porno and leave me completely horny and unsatisfied. How can I get him to want me the way he did when we met? I know I could have anyone else, but I want him. I've started thinking about having an affair but I don't think I could ever do it, I want my marriage to mean something. Please help me, I want my husband to lust after me again...
