Marriage

Dear Lord,

Thank You for the time we have today. We pray we would take advantage of today to spend time together and share how much we love and appreciate each other. Please help us to put our phones away more often. Being on a device, plugged into the world with such easy, becomes a distraction in our daily lives. We catch ourselves looking at our phones and holding our phones more than we are making eye contact. Please help us to have and to honor healthy boundaries with our technology...

The very fact that you’re here leads me to believe that you’ve heard the word limerence before. If not, it basically means this: When a person identifies himself or herself as being madly in love. It’s kind of like a very strong infatuation. I’m guessing that your spouse is in limerence with another person. And you want to know what to do about it.

Well the good news is–limerence ALWAYS ends.

In the meantime, let’s see what we can do about it.

If you type the word limerence into Google or...
