James 3:2
Indeed, we all make many mistakes. For if we could control our tongues, we would be perfect and could also control ourselves in every other way (NLT).
Prayer: Thank the Lord for the many opportunities you both have each day to communicate love and respect. Ask Him for the wisdom to measure your words carefully as you speak love and respect from the heart.
Action: This week, try making a special effort to communicate your love and respect to each other with measured words and focused attention. At the end of the week, make time to talk together about what you have learned and how you can continue the practice. (For discussion questions, see page 268 in Appendix A.)
