It was humbling to hear the story again about grapefruit. It made me cry because it made me realize that we shouldn't be so picky over spouse imperfection. Or the little habits that they have. What a beautiful teaching moment when the husband said" I can't think of anything I don't like about you. It was a teaching moment for me. I even share the story to my husband about the story about the grapefruit. We feel that is very important to have a better understanding how to deal with the things that can be annoying to us and not let that run our life. That can cause conflict.
As I was reading the book in library during work time. I showed this to my coworker. I just felt this very important to know this." God will have humble people. Either we can choose to be humble or we can be compelled to be humble... Let us choose to be humble.
We feel that it will be harder for us to be compelled to be humble than us to Humble ourselves how easier would that be. And how it can help us to grow but us doing our part. Bye forgiving and repenting. I'm still learning the process of repentance. And I also really like when they said that to "see our spot with compassion." I totally change the way you see your spouse. It also helped me to learn about letting your partner influence you and how you can use that in a good way. Not in a way that someone has more power than. I really like how they first open the story about the guy trying to buy the Honda and he didn't want to buy the Honda right away because he told his wife that he would have a mechanic too see the car before he purchases it. It really shows a good  partnership. And how the husband respected his wife by doing what she asked him to do.
What a great way to see that just by listening to your spouse can help you see in a different way that you might have got see it.
