Amazing Marriages – Embrace Silence
Life in Love //
The fire gently crackling was the only noise in the cabin as we relaxed in silence. We sat together, and let the still air of the night surround us. I wrapped my arms around you and we took in the moment. Without a word spoken, we silently said I love you.
When was the last time we just sat together in silence? Sometimes I think it is as if we are afraid of silence. We are always quick to fill the air with music, television or conversation. But, in silence comes comfort. Silence strengthens our love.
One of our favorite things to do with our couples during their engagement sessions is to have them stand facing each other, hand in hand. We ask them to look at each other, close their eyes and take a deep breath. As we step back, we let the silence surround them and watch as it works its magic.
This week we encourage you to embrace silence. Sit together in the morning as the sun rises and just absorb each other. Without a word, let each other know how much you love each other. After dinner, turn off the television, and relax together on the couch. Look at each other and without a word, let each other know how much you mean to each other. Embrace the silent moments and have an AMAZING Marriage and an AMAZING week!
