Harmony In Your HomeSample

Day Two: Be willing to give the benefit of the doubt. 

“Step with care and great tact. And remember that life’s a great balancing act.” – Dr. Seuss

Scripture

If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Romans 12:18 (NIV)

Prayer

Lord, a dash of grace can go a long way. I've seen it in my own life when You show me grace. Help me do the same with my spouse. Help my spouse do the same with me. Lord, will You remind us both to give each other the benefit of the doubt when we are on opposite sides of a situation -whether in an argument, disagreement or a mis-step. Mold my heart and mind to lead with asking questions in order to understand what was done or said, rather than making accusations. Help my spouse to do the same. Fill our home with the harmony that comes from Your love made manifest in us. In Jesus' name, amen.
