Today's devotion was rather interesting. It talked about how you have two rooms in your head. The Appreciation Room and the Depreciation Room. In the Appreciation Room, all of the positive things about your spouse are written all over the walls. In the Depreciation room, all the negative things about your spouse are written all over the walls. It said that if you spend too much time in the Depreciation room, anger and bitterness and divorce grows. And that's true. Let's say Brian forgets something I ask him to get, it makes me angry which takes me to the Depreciation room and I sit there and focus on all of his bad qualities. And it doesn't make ANYTHING better. Usually it makes me irritable...and well we've covered that.
Our dare was to take two sheets of paper and on one list negative qualities and on the other list positive qualities and hide them in a secret place. Since they were supposed to be secret, we decided not to post the negative qualities but to list the positive ones.
Brian's Positive Qualities:
Loyal
Supportive
Kind
Gentle
Creative
Good Provider
Godly
Hard Worker
Helpful
Handsome
