When you got married, you brought a lot of good things into the union.
Your spouse brought some too!!!
But you also brought some emotional wounds!!
Marriages struggle when there is a clash of emotional wounds.
And marriages break when one person decides that the other person’s baggage is too much to bear.
What can you do to prevent this worst-case scenario?
- Expose your emotional wounds to GOD for healing.
- Pray for your spouse so that their emotional wounds can be exposed and healed.
- Understand that the wounds of your spouse are yours too because you are a team.
- Determine never to play the blame game but rather to stand alongside them to get victory!
Take note that if the emotional wounds of your spouse will put you in danger, you must do all the above from a safe place.
And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye’; and look, a plank is in your own eye? Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
Matt 7:3-5 NKJV
