Wednesday, September 10 Let us pursue the things making for peace and the things that are upbuilding to one another.—Rom. 14:19. A person who behaves as a lesser one pursues peace with everyone and especially with his or her own marriage mate. (Luke 9:48) Consider the area of recreation. A couple may differ in their preferences when it comes to entertainment. Perhaps the husband likes to stay quietly at home during leisure time and read a book. On the other hand, the wife may prefer going out for a meal or visiting friends. Would it not be easier for the wife to respect her husband when she sees that he manifests humility and gives sincere consideration to her likes and dislikes rather than being concerned only about his own preferences? And how the husband loves and appreciates his wife when he sees that she does not just try to get her own way but considers his wishes! The marriage bond is strengthened when each partner behaves as a lesser one.—Phil. 2:1-4. w12 11/15 3:13, 14
