Dealing with an Angry Husband
The Following is an Excerpt from our Book, Angry Without a Cause (Click Here to Order) .
No bride stands at a wedding alter and says, “I will love, honor, and adore you when you measure up to my expectations.” It doesn’t happen. That would be ridiculous. Most of the attendees to the wedding would be thinking, “I’d better keep my receipt.” On the other hand, how many wives are living this out on a consistent basis? That’s why, in our day and age, many go away from a wedding holding their breath and thinking, “This sure is a lot of money to spend for something that may not last more than a few years.”
Ladies, you signed up to love him for better or for worse. Right now you may feel like it can’t get any worse, but you must not be enticed to express your frustrations in an inappropriate fashion.
Carefully read the following letter that was written to a well known Christian counselor by the name of Clyde Narramore. I hope it will be a tremendous blessing to you. It’s one of my favorite quotes on this subject.
“One day, I was saved and I began to know what God could do for me. Was love something that you felt? Was it something that happened to you, or was it an act of the will?
I finally faced the fact that I might not be able to feel love, but what I could do was show forth love. From that moment on I began to behave as if I did feel love.
‘What would I do for my husband today?’ I asked myself, if I were really in love with him? Then I proceeded to do these little kindnesses.
I studied his likes and dislikes and bought little treats for his lunch box. I tried to comfort him when he came home from work, tired or harassed by a heavy schedule. I met him at the door with a smile. I respected his discipline of the children and worked with him. I tried to speak softly and diplomatically when we had differences. I listened to him.
Soon I noticed a marked change in him. He was behaving as though he were living with a woman who loved him. I began to notice a change in my own feelings. He was not at all like I had concluded. He had real depth, and I was beginning to fall in love with him.” (2)
