  Is there anything that makes it difficult to hope for a better future in your marriage? How do you think you can let go of this?

  When we dwell on past hurts that we have done to one another and bring them up as if they are in the now. Holding on to the pain from the past and not letting go or trying to make the other pay for the past. Also where my husband is at in his faith in God, sometimes that worries me even though I know it should not. I want us to both be spiritually maturing but I have to recognize that is the job of the Holy Spirit not me and I need to do my job and keep praying for him and believe God WILL do a good work within him for the good of this family and his Kingdom.

  Well me and my girl are really different in age. I worry that I won’t have as much time with her as I’d like, in the long run, like by the time we have children. What I hope is that I live a really long life. I hope God grants me a very long life and I ll appreciate every moment I can.

  I am learning that my parents struggled in their marriage. My marriage with my wife and I has been growing stronger. We need to focus on us, and our future and let go of other family relationships.

  I think what makes it difficult to hope for a better future is when you refuse to let go of the past.
  For us to let go of what ever problem or challenges,
  1. Let go of the past
  2. Think more about how you treat each other than what is causing the conflict.
  3. Let go of any baggage that both of you are carrying
  4. Believe God for miracle of healing your marriage.

  There are always challenges in all marriages that causes one to have questions. But if I am willing to let go of old baggage and instead focus on how I treat my wife there’s hope for a better future and the relationship between my wife and myself. If I die to self and live for Christ, I can let go of the old baggage.

  What tends to be your goal in a conflict with your spouse? Has anything in this lesson changed your perspective on conflict?

  we have differences every now and again but it is accepted in each other – since we know we are unique individuals and we are very aware of what makes it or doesn’t. We give and take continuously.

  My goal is usually to try to get thru it to avoid senseless debate and what i consider dumb stuff. This lesson has taught me that i should see the process of our interaction rather that focusing on what is our conflict. I should aim at letting it lead us close to God, helping my spouse feel empowered and encouraged. (show attention, approval and appreciation)

  My goal is normally to ensure that I am understood and not blamed. I have learnt to be more concerned about the process of resolving the conflict, by caring for my spouse’s feelings abd needs, this way I will be honouring God.

  My goal is to be able to communicate without being judged or feeling like I am not listening to my spouse.
