Today's challenge is to think about and find a mentor couple to help assist my marriage. After talking with Kendra, I believe that stepping into this relationship with my father in law would be great. He is a very Godly man who has lots of experience in counseling but more importantly has my respect. I called him but he was at work, so I will directly ask him if we can establish an open relationship regarding struggles and strengths I'm having in my relationship. What I'd like to learn from him is how I can be a stronger spiritual leader in the household and really establish healthy prayer patterns with Kendra. He and his wife have a vibrant relationship based on Godly, Biblical principles and I know that I will benefit from spending time with him.
While the majority of today's reading was focused on relationships that are near the end or really struggling, it is a reminder that all relationships, including mine need to be nurtured. I've not resisted counseling in our relationship before and I won't in the future either. I'm more committed to having a #10 relationship than I am "looking" good, so I don't believe I will have any stigma regarding this dare. Lord please bless me in this pursuit and may my efforts be blessed by you as this relationship (between myself and my father-in-law) in grown and pursued.
