I decided to entitled this blog post " This Too Will End" because in marriage they are many challenges that confront us on a daily basis. How we deal with these testing episodes of our lives determine how we treat our partners and our relationship. When a challenge appears, I simply ask myself the question - Am I the cause for my situation? If the answer is no, I simply say, this too will end. If I am responsible them I must recognize that I am accountable and must address the issue with the intervention of my partner to find not only an effective solution but an efficient one. Once there is agreement on the approach to the solution, then there is no need to worry and I declare "THIS TOO WILL END".
Do not spend a significant percentage of your day worrying. Each day God gives us a beautiful life, why would you want to crowd it up with stress, anxiety, and anger. He did not intent that we should worry away, the mysterious thing about that is that we don't know if it will end within that time. Should we not get the most of it by living a life of peace, joy and harmony?
The best therapy for challenging situations in our lives is to realize that all issues and problems will come to an end. Do not worry over things for which you have no control and see all disappointments and a blessings. A disappointment is really an alteration in the natural flow of things. It probably was not meant to be. God has a better plan.
So when ever precarious situations pop up. Simply say, this too will end and get on with your life. Such an attitude will enhance your relationship in a subtle way.
