Supporting Each Other's Dreams: A Path to Connection

Day 5 - Sep 18, 2026

Dreams don’t all have equal value.  

Not all dreams hold the same value. We all have desires for our lives, but sometimes we end up chasing the wrong ones. When a self-centered pursuit becomes the driving force of your life, it leaves little room for anyone else. If we aren't careful, elevating our own comfort or personal ambitions over our commitments has the potential to slowly erode and destroy our marriage.

Matthew 6:33 (NLT) "Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need."

But what happens when our dreams are actually good? What if your dream is a righteous one—the dream of a secure future, a meaningful ministry, or a loving family? These are beautiful desires, yet Jesus tells us we must still be willing to lay them down for Him. He asks us to trust Him with the things we hold most dear, rather than gripping them too tightly.

When you release your grip on your own plans, you make room for God to work. Put God’s dream in front of your own dream. By prioritizing His purpose first, you will often find your dream anyway—just reshaped and better than you imagined. You end up getting the deepest desires of your heart fulfilled in ways you couldn't have engineered on your own.



Take Action

Like the woman with the expensive perfume, what's your alabaster flask?  

  • What’s your dream?  
  • Have you shared it with your spouse?  If so, have you share it lately?  Or, is it something you've stopped sharing because you feel it will never happen?
  • Have you surrendered your dream to the Lord?  
  • You should, because you're a part of His dream.

Day 5 - Sep 19, 2025

There MUST Be TRUST!

Trust is essential in a marriage, but you cannot demand it; you must earn it.

To create an atmosphere where both spouses feel free to share—where you can be emotionally naked and unashamed—you need to feel safe. No one wants to be judged for their feelings. A healthy marriage provides a space for each person to share any emotion, knowing it will be respected.

  • Have you created a safe emotional space for your spouse?

The Connection Between Intimacies

  • Physical intimacy begins with emotional intimacy. This internal connection requires value, energy, sacrifice, and trust.


Take Action

Are you INVESTing in your marriage? Or does it feel like there are constant withdrawals with little investment?

  • Do one special thing today for your spouse without expecting anything in return.
  • What specific actions can you take to strengthen the trust in your marriage and create a safer emotional space for both you and your spouse?
