The Silent Battle: How Your Thoughts Shape Your Marriage :: [Ep. 280]

Did you know that our negative self-talk about our spouses is quietly undermining our marriages by hardening our hearts and planting seeds of resentment? These mental arguments—whether it's "he just doesn't get me" or "why bother, he'll never change"—grow roots from our minds to our hearts that slowly choke our love.

With this in mind, we will be talking about the following:

• Better understanding negative thoughts about our husbands
• Exploring the desire to be seen and understood is powerful, and the effects caused when husbands miss this
• Reminding ourselves of God as El Roy (the God who sees) which can fulfill our need to be known when our spouses fall short
• How to fight the temptation to give up because nothing seemingly changes
• How to replace negative thoughts with confidence that you are known by God
• Remembering to tell yourself the gospel—what God has done for you— which shifts focus away from what your spouse hasn't done

We hope you can join us today and pray you are encouraged!!
