You may ask God for forgiveness of your sins daily, but are you granting forgiveness to others? If you are not forgiving your significant other for their shortcomings or problem then you are not putting in a real effort in your relationship. When you speak to God, ask for help in forgiving your partner for things they may have done in the past or things they continue to do. It’s also important to ask for forgiveness that you did not strive to forgive the partner sooner. We can choose to remember the transgressions no more, just as the Lord does. The same holds true when you grant forgiveness to another, put it behind you and don’t bring it up again. Forgiveness is a key component to restoration of a relationship.

Reflect on Your Relationship

If you haven’t done so already, sit down and take a serious look at your relationship. One of the best things to do is have a conversation with God and reflect on your dedication letting God save your relationships. If you need help, start with some questions. If God is my only solution, will I admit that I can’t solve the problems by will trust Him to put my relationship right again? As God allows events to unfold, what do I need to do? Am I willing to persevere even if my partner doesn’t respond? What are the issues in the relationship that I want to bring to God? Make sure to take the adequate time you need to reflect on your answers.

Remember Communication

The Bible is full of advice from the Lord about having a healthy relationship. In Ephesians 4:15, God reminds us to be honest with each other and speak with love in your heart. In Ephesians 4:26-27, we are told to attack the problem, and not the person. Making sure to speak kindly to the other person when a problem arises will help keep lines of communication open. Lastly, in Proverbs 18:13-19 we are reminded to respond to our partner in a Godly way, regardless of what happens. Take time with your spouse and look up passages in the Bible dedicated to relationships. Share a devotional with each other and then discuss how it could help the relationship you are in.
