Marriage isn’t Mathematical


Listen Later

         It isn’t always the words that you say that will fix the issue but your presence that is enough to express your love. Assume there’s an argument and you had the correct formula to devastate your opponent, your wife or husband. Let's say, they did not see it coming. You await the opportunity to land the blow and you finally deliver the profound blow. You win the argument and put your significant other in a trance. So now what? You won the argument but are left still living with this person and feeling a long lasting awkwardness. You then come to the sense that winning didn’t always feel pleasure-full or nearly as satisfying.

  • Avoid trying to be D.Phil.
  • *issues are not mathematical

    * issues aren’t always best resolved logically

    * allow the Holy Spirit to guide your next steps

    • Communication is Key
    • *Proverbs 15:1 -- “A soft word turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.”

      * “Listen with the intent to understand and not with the intent to respond”

      * Counter Lies with Truth and not opinions.

      • Don’t be full of word and talk, devoid of deeds and truth.
      • *Words fall short where actions speak louder

        *Being right isn’t always right (Arguments drag out because one is too stubborn to forgive and the other is too proud to apologize.

        *Ephesians 5:25: "For husbands, this means love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her."
