(Mark 10:7-9 NKJV) ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, {8} ‘and the two shall become one flesh’; so then they are no longer two, but one flesh.
Becoming one with our spouse is what God has intended for a marriage. He does not want the husband and wife in disagreement or apart in any way.
One of the things that we have settled on as a couple is that if we don’t agree on something, we don’t do it.
We have learned in our 29+ years of marriage that this works great for us. We simply wait until we come together in agreement on whether to do something or not to do it. Either way, we have to be together.
There have been many times we have discussed something, and one of us says “I’m not sure. I’m feeling uncomfortable with that”. When that happens, we will not make a move in that direction. We don’t get mad at each other for voicing our opinion or expressing how we feel. We just know we need to wait.
We need to be together as one, we should not pull away from each other when we don’t agree on something but, rather, listen to the other’s concern.
This has saved us from making some really bad decisions in our lives.
