When was the last time you asked yourself what you could do to be a better husband/wife to your spouse? When was the last time you sat down together and talked about what is going well in your relationship and what needs some work? Our cars go in for tune ups and oil changes on a regular basis to keep them running well, so, why not give that same consideration to our marriages?
Elder David A. Bednar in his talk entitled Marriage Is Essential to His Eternal Plan teaches some basic principles that are worth discussing with our spouse.
He teaches us that it's important to know that male and female spirits complete and perfect each other. They work together as a complement towards exultation.
In what ways do you and your spouse complement each other?
What is the best thing that your spouse does to support or complement you in your marriage?
Is there anything that you might want to work on to be a better help meet to each other?
Gender is an essential characteristic of individual, premortal, mortal and eternal identity and purpose. It defines who we are, why we are here and who we will become.
In what ways are you different and distinctive from your spouse?
How do you use those differences to your advantage?
Are you comfortable in the roles you play in your family?
How do you use those roles to the fullest to progress together towards perfection?
