Disagreements

Prodigal:  You look like you are not yourself. Whats wrong?

Me:  People

Prodigal:  What about people

Me:  He’s so hardheaded, you could chop wood on his skull

Abraham by Charles Swindoll

 

Through the years, after countless resolved disagreements and difficult moments, I have finally learned to listen.  My wife has a lot of wisdom.  She knows me better than anyone else and can say better than anyone else what I need to hear.  Even when she happens to be wrong about something, her perspective has value to me.  I learn how to be a better man through our disagreements, and I learn how to lover her better.

Lessons we need to learn often come through the person we’re married to, if we’re not too stupid to hear what he or she is saying.

 

Don’t be too stupid today…..

 

Matthew 13:9

Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
