He who blesses his friend with a loud voice early in the morning, it will be reckoned a curse to him.
Ask your spouse to tell you three things that cause him or her to be uncomfortable or irritated with you. You must do so without attacking them or justifying your behavior. This is from their perspective only.

Well at first, I didn't understand the bible verse I said that verse in my head over and over............ even reread it out loud, saying wow what the heck does that mean. Then the light bulb went off. My voice is always at a decimal of 10 to my husband, to my children and then I started to think of every time I would open my big trap, it was to scream, yell, dictate, or bark orders. So I first kept on counting over and over and over and over and over. Now we talk together instead of yelling. There is more smiles then tears and frowns. The Dare says to ask my spouse three things about me that make him uncomfortable. I really don't need to know them by heart:
1. I scream way to much.
2. I scream way to much.
3. I always yell.
So that's what I am working on!! Keep praying for me!!!
Sounds like its going well! Keep up the good {hard!} work, Mama!! <3
