You see, being respectful is simply the bare minimum necessary for a healthy relationship. It’s the foundation upon which everything else is added. It’s not, however, the juice that truly fuels intimate, inspiring, soul-nourishing, relationships.
To have a soul-nourishing relationship requires some degree of reverence. This can look like a steady flow of tenderness, compassion, warmth and love. These relationships have a sense of teamwork. Both partners know they are in it together. They rejoice in each other’s successes and they are sad for each other’s difficulties. Partners in soul-nourishing relationships are very aware that they are blessed to be on the same team.
Challenge: What one move could you make to bring a bit of reverence into your relationship? What can you do to move from treating your partner with respect, to treating your partner with “the deepest respect”?
