3749 Drawing Closer When You Least Expect It

You want to jumpstart a new era of intimacy in your marriage. Yet, you don’t want the same old date nights or “try harder” pep talks. You want real. Something that changes the way you move through life together, drawing closer when you least expect it. 

So, what do you think it is? Honestly, it's not something you can buy at a store or order online that comes in a sneaky, unnamed box. It's not about more counseling or coaching. It's not about scheduling time together, even though that's important.

It's all about praying together.

Prayer with your spouse is not about ticking off a spiritual checklist or repeating empty phrases.

It’s soul-level talk — unfiltered, raw, and honest — that brings your deepest desires, fears, and hopes into the light. It’s the kind of connection that cuts through the noise and the daily grind.

When I think about fireworks for your marriage, you cannot leave out praying together.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Pray together!

When you pray together, something powerful shifts:

• Your desires come to the surface. What you really want—not just the surface stuff—starts to take shape. And suddenly, those desires aren’t just yours anymore; they’re shared.

• You become instant allies. Instead of feeling like two separate puzzle pieces struggling to fit, you're moving in the same direction. Your hearts line up.

• Unexpected gratitude emerges. You’ll find yourself recognizing blessings and strengths in each other you’d missed in the chaos.

This isn’t about praying for a miracle (though those happen, too). It’s about creating space for honest emotional intimacy that no couples’ therapy or date night can manufacture overnight.

Imagine this: just five minutes a day, eyes closed or held tightly, asking God together to guide your hearts.

• What could happen to your marriage if you made that a non-negotiable?
• Would the distance between you begin to shrink?
• Would the walls come down, and vulnerability flood in?

If your marriage feels stuck, lukewarm, or even disconnected, praying together may be the ignition switch you didn’t know was waiting under the hood.

It’s bold. It’s simple. And it works because it’s beyond you—it invites God, who is outside your arguments, schedules, and distractions, to pull you closer.

So here’s your challenge: stop trying harder. Start praying together. Watch as your connection deepens when you least expect it—and how it changes everything.
