Yesterday my husband and I had a very interesting conversation. It is that conversation that you seem to have all the time. What should we do with the money we make?? One answer is to save the other is after everything is paid, spend whatever you want. Sort of seems like the same answer but it is not. The frustration that comes with the topic makes it one that is avoided usually at all costs. Can a happy medium be reached? There is pain involved in trying to get the other person to understand you. Sometimes you are left looking at this person that you love and committed your whole life to being with and saying do you know me at all.
Are you really looking at me, do you see me, I am that same woman you married . It is funny how the characteristics that define who you are begin to get compartmentalized. I like your sense of humor but I could do without all the religious stuff. I like the way you care about people you are so giving but don't give all your money away etc....Then comes my part of well if you would just wash your entire mind from all these worldly mind sets then everything would be alright and we wouldn't have the need for all this frustration. It is like having a stalemate in chess, nobody moves and the game never ends. So then I settle myself and I go to my final authority.
I turn to the word of God and see what he has to say about the situation. The word of God says in all your getting get understanding. If any of you lack wisdom ask for it. What Yahweh has joined together let no man separate and that includes the people involved. Yahshua himself is our peace and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility and made the two one. It is my responsibility as a wife to love my husband no matter what I feel like at the moment or the next couple of moments. I have to employ the power twins FAITH AND PATIENCE. I have to honor him even when I want to do otherwise. I am growing up and that comes with a lot of purging and pruning and keeping my mouth shut. I give Yahweh all the glory because it is more important for me to please him then to get in the last word. So even after an uncomfortable late night of heated fellowship, I can kiss my husband this morning and remember that Yahshua has given me peace and the Holy Spirit as my comforter.
