Keep Small Things Small Things

Being in relationship means you will step on each other’s toes. Maybe quite frequently. You are different from your mate, and they are different from you. Don’t allow these differences to become a barrier between you, but rather a source of excitement and interest. Don’t let small annoyances build, but rather forgiving each other—again and again. “Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against each other.” (Colossians 3:13)
