Refresh Your Relationships: 3 Faith-Based Ways to Reconnect This Spring
Spring is a season of renewal—not just for our homes and schedules, but also for our relationships. As Christian career moms, we’re often pulled in a hundred directions, juggling work, parenting, marriage, ministry, and more. And while we love deeply, life’s busyness can leave our most important relationships feeling neglected or strained.
What if this spring, instead of just refreshing your space—you refreshed your relationships? The ones God has entrusted to you. The ones that matter most. Let's talk about how to nurture those connections with intention, grace, and His guidance.
1. Reconnect with God as Your First Relationship
Before you can pour into others, your own connection with God definitely needs tending. He is the source of love, peace, patience, and wisdom—all things you need in every other relationship
Scripture:
“Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.” – Matthew 22:37
Practical Reset:
-
Schedule a 15-30 minute “God date” each day: prayer, worship, or just quiet time
-
Ask God to help you see your relationships through His eyes
-
Invite Him into conversations, conflict, and connection
When your heart is full of His love and presence, it overflows into your relationships.
2. Restore Intentional Moments with Loved Ones
It’s easy to live on autopilot—getting the kids to school, checking in with your spouse between work meetings, texting friends occasionally. But thriving relationships are built on intentional presence.
Scripture:
“Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.” – Romans 12:10
Practical Reset:
-
Block out “connection time” each week: date nights, family dinners, phone calls to a friend
-
Ask thoughtful questions: “How are you really doing?”
-
Put the phone down. Look into their eyes. Be present.
Little moments of presence build lifelong connection.
3. Rebuild Boundaries Where Needed
Refreshing relationships isn’t just about doing more—it’s also about protecting peace. Some relationships may be draining you, and some may need gentle boundaries. Even Jesus withdrew to rest and be alone with the Father.
Scripture:
“Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” – Proverbs 4:23
Practical Reset:
-
Ask God: “Is there a relationship I need to release or redefine this season?”
-
Set healthy boundaries with love and clarity
-
Let go of people-pleasing and pursue peace with purpose
You can love others well and still protect your emotional and spiritual health.
Conclusion: Love Well, Rest in Grace
Your relationships don’t have to be perfect to be purposeful. With God’s help, they can be refreshed, restored, and renewed. This spring, ask Him to help you love deeper, connect more intentionally, and protect your peace with grace.
Take a moment today to pray over one relationship that needs a refresh. Ask God to guide your next step—whether it’s initiating a conversation, scheduling time together, or setting a boundary. Then move forward with faith.
