Bringing out the best in your partner requires us to invest on our partner and it is a continuous process. We must invest or sow seeds in our partner in the areas we want to see growth. When we continuously invest in our relationship we will experience growth and progress.
5 Things you can do in order to bring out the best in your partner
1. Bringing out the best in
your partner depends on you and not your partner. You have to understand that
in getting into a relationship you must be ready and willingly at all times to
invest in your partner. That is why in choosing a life partner you must look
out for someone who will add value to you while you do the same. Philippians
2:3.
You must understand the most times duty comes
before happiness. What you say or do will determine to a large extent what you
will bring out of your partner.
2.
Make your spouse your number one priority after God. Matthew
6:21. To make him/her the first priority after God, you will have to involve
him/her in your time, finance, emotions, thought, plans, goals, visions,
dreams, talks, chats and decisions. Let him/her understand how deeply in love
you are with him/her. When you do these, he/she will rise up to meet your
expectations.
3.
Allow him/her free expression. Let him/her be who
he/she is and who he/she supposed to be. Giving him/her freedom allows love to
grow faster in your relationship. So, allow him/her to be who he/she is
whenever you are together. Don’t be fast to judge or condemn him/her when
he/she truly and freely comes out. You have to speak to the queen or king
respectively in your partner of which will bring the best out of him/her.
4.
You need to support his/her dreams. You have to invest
in his/her dreams. You can do this by investing your finance, advice, time, etc
in the dreams. Celebrate his/her achievements and success and appreciate
him/her. Observe the good things he/she does and don’t crucify him/her.
5.
Bring him/her to God on daily basis in prayers.
