As we age and grow in Christlikeness, we learn which hurts are worth discussing and which are best ignored. We ask God for wisdom to learn what to do. James 1:5 (CSB), “if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God <\/strong> —  who gives to all<\/strong> generously and ungrudgingly  —  and it will be given to him.” <\/p>\n

God’s wisdom is “first pure, then peaceable, gentle<\/strong>, easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy,” James 3:17. Therefore, when the matter needs to be talked about, we come to each other humbly and gently. We prepare our hearts to learn how we have hurt <\/strong>our spouse; we sincerely apologize. We try to make amends. But learning how to discuss problems with wisdom is very hard work. It takes a life-time to learn! <\/p>\n

Ephesians 4:26 (NLT) gives us a good time<\/strong> goal<\/strong>: “ ‘don’t sin by letting anger control you<\/strong>.’ Don’t let the sun go down<\/strong> while you are still angry.” If possible, we try to make up before the day ends and we go to bed. <\/p>\n

Sometimes it’s a good idea to talk to older, happily-married Christians<\/strong>. Let each spouse talk privately to these wise people. Explain your problems and ask for advice. Ask how they have learned to resolve differences. A good Christian mentor can offer suggestions which have worked for them! <\/p>\n

Remember: God will certainly help you. Suffering develops our characters<\/strong>, and even our Lord Jesus learned from His painful experiences. Hebrews 5:8 (NLT), “…though Jesus was God’s Son, he learned obedience from the things he suffered<\/strong>.” We cannot escape suffering in this present sinful world. Therefore, turn to God to receive comfort and wisdom during your painful experiences. He cares!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
