January 9
Joy and I are dining in the home of a minister friend and her guests. A marriage counselor says he worries about couples who say they never fight.
I pipe in with a brief version of a tiff that Joy and I had earlier at home. Joy wisely said for us to pray and God brought love and gentleness to both of us.
Driving home Joy says, "My heart soared when you had the courage to be vulnerable and say what you did at dinner. I love you all the more.”
She could have been embarrassed or angry. Instead she is filled with love and compassion. These are clearly God-given attributes!
"Let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband." (Ephesians 5:33)
