A few weeks ago Gabriel and I were out, running errands. I thought we were going to Home Store to get new pillows, he thought we were going to Home Mart. He was driving.
I have a horrible sense of direction, so although it seemed like we were going the wrong way I figured he either knew of a different way to get to The Home Store or needed to stop somewhere else along the way. When we pulled into the Home Mart parking lot, he got out of the car and asked why I wasn’t going in too. That was when I realized that although we were both in the car together we both had separate destinations in mind.

Within the context of your marriage, vision helps to minimize unnecessary struggles and answers that nagging questions that inevitably pops up after a few years, “Where are we going” and Why are we even together?”

It also helps you to express and identify what you want out of your relationship and life together and a way to track if you’re off course.
