Love Quotes For My Husband – 30 Ways To Inspire Your Love For Him

Love quotes in healthy marriages can stoke the warmth when your heart is feeling a little stretchy or dry!

Whenever life gets hectic for a couple, one of the first things to go out of the window is sweet attentions and courtesies. For my husband and I, the last few weeks have been incredibly busy due to work transitions and a huge move.

When life gets busy for us, we tend to dive inward into ourselves, instead of reaching out to each other for support.

At some point, one of us will come up for air and reach out, only to find less goodwill than they were hoping for; which feeds a feeling of isolation : (

Since we cannot eliminate all of life stressors, we are forever learning how to walk through the less-than-lovely seasons of life and maintain a healthy fun friendship.

I am learning that after prayer and time with God, one of the best ways to revive my love for Tommy is to simply take a pause and relive what he means to me.

Enter love quotes and other expressive words which explain our love, in detail. 

Please note: this post applies to marriages of goodwill, where both spouses (not just one spouse) are committed to growth and where the fruit of confession and repentance is evident. This post encourages healthy couples wrestling through common marriage problems. If your spouse is abusive, controlling, deceptive, dishonoring and chronically neglects your needs, those are not “normal marriage problems.” Those are individual issues and this post is not speaking to those situations. Please check out these posts for resources to help. Even for healthy marriages, mutual respect, empathy and desire to grow are assumed.

Writing sweet love quotes is a lot like creating a painting masterpiece. At first, the canvas might be a little plain and lacking.

But as we flick a wrist and caress the canvas with gentle brush strokes, the picture begins to come together. We work our brain and heart and remind ourselves what our spouse means to us.

Until such a time we can stand back, look at the complete masterpiece and exclaim “I see the whole of you, sweet darling, not just the specks and smudges!”

The Songs of Solomon, found in the old Testament is a great example of how a couple can stir their love towards one another.

Love quotes for my husband challenge 

Two weeks ago, after moving from San Antonio, TX to Plano, TX and while nursing a terrible cold, surrounded by boxes and mess, I found space on our couch, and margin in my brain to write love quotes and notes to my one and only.

It turned out to be a good exercise for my brain; instead of camping on the minor irritations of a move, the uncertainties of life and anxiety of the undone, I was able to see what I already had and celebrate the gift that my husband already is.

In the end, I felt closer to him, and even though I was sick and tired, my heart was rejuvenated and soft. I want to invite you to do the same thing today, especially if you are the middle of a busy or difficult season.

Take a few minutes time to create your own love quotes and notes. You don’t have to be an author or orator. Just write something from the heart.

Perhaps, you feel words are not your thing, that’s okay. Just take a few minutes to reflect on specific ways your husband and marriage has ministered to you in the past week, past months?

Did he tell you he loves you? Does he wash dishes, remember your birthday? Did he plan a date, buy you an unexpected gift? What’s a favorite trait about him?

Did he fix something around the house? Has he done something selfless of late? Does he nurture (or try to) his relationship with people who are important to you?

How does that make you feel when he does these things? How has He inspired growth in you? What emotions stir in your heart when you think about him?

Be specific. Think of fun situations. Get dreamy. And then write it down.

To give you an idea, I’ll share the love quotes I wrote for my husband (some of which I’ve shared on Pinterest before), but I want to invite you to write your own love quotes for your guy.

After painting on that blank canvas and enjoying the masterpiece, consider sending it his way to make his day! (you can use my quotes if they ring true for you!)

However, the primary concern here is your focus; to find a way to move from stress or complete-self-focus to an attitude of love, gratitude and peace.
