Join us as we break down this very dangerous and destructive blind spot. As Thad describes it is a "hate blanket" that takes us over without us even realizing it. How can we get out of it? There is a way. We recommend this prayer for you to pray when trying to overcome a blind spot you may be dealing with. Lord Jesus, I agree and confess that I have been proud (or selfish, etc). Please forgive me for (say what you need forgiveness for, be specific) Thank You for Your forgiveness. I choose to humble myself before You and others. I choose to place all my confidence in You and not to put confidence in my flesh. I renounce the spirit of pride that is attached to this, and command it to go to the Lord Jesus for His judgement. I choose to remove and forsake this mantle of pride, and I ask You Holy Spirit to shut the door that I have opened whether I knew it or not and; clothe me in Your garment of humility, OR guide my thoughts, attitudes, and actions, OR heal my damaged emotions, OR free me from the bondage of bitterness. In Jesus' name. Amen. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/marriagerescue101/message

You gotta do it!  A good marriage requires you to have those awkward conversations not only to get your feelings out, but so that you can understand your spouses feelings. Of course it is not easy having them, but the possibility of a positive outcome, understanding your spouse, and getting past the stuck place in your marriage is worth it! We understand not knowing what to say or how to start those conversations. They're TOUGH! So many times we would rather bury our feelings than have to face them. But you gotta do it!

Fighting for your marriage is fun until you HAVE to fight for your marriage! Many couples go into marriage thinking, "If this doesn't work, I'm out." Instead of treating marriage as the gift that God gave us. They think going into marriage that everything will be great, never giving thought to fighting for their marriage by loving, serving, and respecting each other everyday to keep from having to one day, fight to keep their marriage from falling apart. Ask yourself, "If I'm not fighting for my marriage what kind of marriage do I have?" Then, "What kind of marriage do I want to have?" then fight for it!!
