What to Do With an Imperfect Spouse

No Comments

“Even if I’ve never met you, I know one thing is true about you: you’re married to an imperfect mate. And here’s the spiritual reality that flows from this difficult truth: even though our mate disappoints us and hurts us, the Bible still calls us to respect and appreciate our imperfect spouse. 

This is true whether you’re a husband (1 Peter 3:7) or a wife (Ephesians 5:33). How do we do this, in a practical sense? How can we honestly and sincerely respect and appreciate someone who is so imperfect?”

The statements above come from the terrific article, written by Gary Thomas (which is actually titled, Feeling Let Down?). It is featured in the Spring 2007 issue of Marriage Partnership Magazine www.marriagepartnership.com.

In this article, Gary makes 7 thought-provoking points which are worth reading!
