It’s not uncommon for us to show the least amount of patience and grace to the person that we should be closest to– the person that said they’d spend the rest of their life with you. Why is that? I think it’s partly because we’re around them more than anyone else, so by definition, they have more opportunities to experience our frustrations. It’s also because we know our spouse better than anyone else and the more you know someone, the more likely you are to identify differences between you and them. But do you know what overcomes all of this? All of the differences and frustrations? Love and patience. So, demonstrate love and patience with your spouse. Your spouse deserves it.
