Selfishness can be a destructive force in any relationship, but it can be particularly damaging in a marriage. When we are solely focused on our own desires and needs, we neglect the needs of our spouse and create an imbalance in the relationship. This behavior leads to resentment, frustration, and ultimately, the breakdown of marriages. However, when we prioritize the needs and desires of our spouse, we create a strong foundation for a healthy, loving, and fulfilling marriage. In striving to put the needs of our spouse above our own, we demonstrate the sacrificial love that Christ showed us and create a beautiful reflection of his love in our marriages. Dive into chapter 7 with me as the topic of selfishness becomes even more personal.
