I had a blind spot

I began this study believing I had it all together in my walk with Christ. I had completed much of the ACBC classes, I was a precept leader, I had completed everyone of Jen Wilkins’ studies, yet I had a blind spot. I thought I was more righteous than my husband, and I needed to correct him. The Lord showed me, through this study and the word, that I was lacking patience and that my words were not seasoned with grace as they should be. I have learned to be slow to speak, and quick to listen, and slow to anger. Our marriage is much more peaceful as I have learned to not let every offense become an issue and to just respect my husband by not responding with any words that may sound ungracious. Thank you for this study. We all can learn by the power of the word when it teaches us, reproofs us, and corrects us. 2 Timothy 3:16
