Nov. 13th Tuesday

 2. Be friends… don’t worry about fixing all the differences.

 

Bob forgets his anniversary…. it’s his 30th… his wife is raging… she says I have been hinting for weeks about what I want and you completely forget! Tomorrow morning I better see a gift in the driveway that goes from 0-200 in 7 seconds or less…if you know what I mean. 

 *the next morning she wakes up, bob has already left for the day. She looks outside and there is a gift box in the driveway… she gets excited thinking it might hold a set of keys… she runs out and opens it and it is a bathroom scale… Bob has been missing ever since! 

 

 

A happy marriage is not built on fixing what you don’t have in common, but rather focusing on what you do have in common and building a deep meaningful friendship. 

 

 

You do realize that you and your best friend/friends have very little in common. But you focus on what you do have in common. 

 

It’s easy to think you will be happy when you resolve your differences… nothing could be farther from the truth.

 

 

My best friend’s driving vs. my wife driving…. 

 

 

Gen. 2:24 That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.

 

cling: stay connected to intimately. Pursue the intimacy. 

 

PURSUE WHAT YOU HAVE IN COMMON

Quit wasting time on what you don’t have in common…
