Day 2: Deepening Emotional Intimacy

Scripture:
24) That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh. 25) Adam and his wife were both naked, and they felt no shame.

Reflection:
Emotional intimacy grows when we feel safe to share our thoughts, fears, and hopes without judgment. Today is about leaning in emotionally, being naked and vulnerable with one another without shame.

Prayer:
Lord, help us create a safe place for one another’s hearts. Teach us to listen with compassion and respond with care. Help our relationship be one conducive for emotional transparency, honesty, and trust. Help us to live and exist in unity as husband and wife, as one flesh, based on your design for marriage. Amen.

Intentional Action:
Ask each other: “How are you really doing?” Listen fully.
