"Demonstrate love by willingly choosing to give in to an area of disagreement between you and your spouse. Tell them you are putting their preference first."
Thankfully, there is not a current disagreement that needs to be resolved; however, I will be reminded of today's reading should one crop up. Having said that, Jay and I both can be stubborn but have learned over the years (and through the disagreements) that sometimes a timely and sincere "I'm sorry" (even if you feel you are not "at fault") can be the beginning of a peaceful resolve and the end of a disagreement. Submission and compromise can be a "road less traveled" by some, but it can also be a smooth road if you're willing to make the trip. I highly recommend it.
Dear God, thank you for the current peace and calm. I know that life can throw things at us that we don't expect. I just pray that you help us navigate through the obstacles in a way that brings you glory and makes us stronger on the other side. In Jesus' name, Amen.
