For my married friends

I figured I'd better post something for my married friends since I posted something for my single friends two days ago. I wouldn't want anyone to feel left out.

I think the single greatest habit you need to exercise regularly in marriage is the habit of forgiveness. 

We should be continually extending forgiveness to our spouses (and to our kids and coworkers and bosses and friends and politicians and ...). Forgiveness should be a habit.

Why?

Because we've been forgiven! 

Bitterness kills. Grudges kill. Keeping score kills. 

What's the antidote?

Forgive one another just as Christ forgave you. Make it a habit.
