A new year brings new goals, dreams, and opportunities—not just for personal growth, but for stronger relationships. As Amos 3:3 reminds us, “How can two walk together unless they are agreed?” True harmony begins when couples communicate clearly, listen with understanding, and seek agreement instead of control.
Start the year by creating a shared vision for your relationship. Each partner should list what will enhance your union and discuss one issue at a time. Whether it’s time together, finances, family, or personal space—take turns speaking and listening. The speaker shares what they need and why; the listener repeats what they heard to ensure clarity.
If emotions rise, pause. Give grace. Then revisit the conversation once calm returns. Remember, information reaches the heart before the mind.
The goal? Unity through agreement. As Matthew 18:19 promises, “If two of you agree on earth about anything you ask for, it will be done by My Father in heaven.”
Topics to discuss:
Date nights • Budgets • Health • Faith • Family • Vacations • Communication • Boundaries • Giving • Home life.
Build a year of oneness, understanding, and answered prayers.
