Do you ever dwell on something your spouse did that upset you? I do. In marriage, we’re quick to forget our own missteps but we have a long memory when it comes to our partner’s actions. Forgiveness is hard, but like most things, the more you practice it, the easier it gets. Remember, love is a verb. The things you do or don’t do, like forgiveness, determine how healthy your marriage will be. Remember too, that this isn’t a 50/50 arrangement. Both of you need to put in 100%, give full effort. And the part of that that you have control over is your 100%. So this week as we talk about not dwelling on the past, I want you to let go. Don’t dwell. Instead, move forward with forgiveness.
