Sunday Soul Tap: How You Can Strengthen Your Relationships Unilaterally

Quality time is a crucial ingredient for any cherished relationship

Whether in a marriage, friendship, or between a parent and child, there is hardly a substitute for spending time actively engaged with that person.

But if you are anything like most people, it is hard to regularly make time for all of those important relationships. Even with well-balanced life style, schedules seem to fill themselves up.

And good luck coordinating with another busy person.

So what can be done to deepen these connections? Aside from time management and organization, which are not my strong suit, you can draw closer to your loved ones by looking inward.

My pastor put it this way today:

I know you because I pray for you.

I am a praying man myself, but if you are not, meditation and other mindfulness practices will capture the essence of this point.

When you pray for someone you are intently focusing on who they are. Their needs and wounds. Their character and talents.

You may choose to think about blessing that person or meditate on what it is you appreciate about them. You may reflect on your previous interactions and evaluate if there is anything you need to makes amends for. Or maybe this person has wronged you. Turning inward will allow you to begin the healing, forgiveness, and reconciliation process even if they are not aware of the harm they caused.

This setting aside of time and mental and emotional energy will directly payout into strengthening your bonds. Over time you will find yourself experience new levels of intimacy in these relationships.

Take some time to tap into your soul today and ask yourself what you can do to focus on the people who mean the most to you. Commit to making small steps towards new habits.

Be blessed,

Sam
