Good Morning Happy Monday December 8th Daily Reading. Love you all have a Bless Day. How Forgiveness and Patience Can Help Your Marriage Marriages are not as good as they could be when someone holds on to offenses and hurts that their spouse has caused. I know its difficult to completely open yourself up after being hurt, but nobody can promise that loving someone wont hurt. In fact, you cant love without being willing to be hurt. Its not possible. You cant have real love unless youre willing to forgive. Love keeps giving the other person another chance. Love keeps trusting them over and over again, expecting them to do the right thing the next time, believing the best of them. I realize there might be big hurts in your marriage, along with little things you deal with daily. Still, you need to decide to let go of its irritating hold on you. If youre struggling with unforgiveness in your marriage, ask the Lord to reveal what has caused you to feel bitterness or resentment. You may be surprised at what He reveals to you, but when you see the truth, decide to let go of that grief. Decide to forgive your spouse and walk in patience as you treat them with Gods amazing, unconditional love. Prayer Starter: God, I want my marriage to be the best it can be. Help me let go of any areas of unforgiveness and to patiently love my spouse the way You want me to. But God had mercy on me so that Christ Jesus could use me as a prime example of his great patience with even the worst sinners. Then others will realize that they, too, can believe in him and receive eternal life. (1 Timothy 1:16 NLT)
