Choosing Your Attitude, Not Just Your Candidate

"It is one's glory to overlook an offense." ~ Proverbs 19:11

Daryl Fowles of Family Life New Zealand discusses how couples can choose their attitude in marriage, even when circumstances frustrate them. He shares a personal story of being locked out of his car after a shopping trip, and how deciding to laugh it off rather than stay grumpy diffused tension with his wife.

Fowles argues that while couples can't control their feelings, they can control their response, especially over minor irritations that don't really matter. For deeper hurts and broken trust, he warns against letting issues fester and advocates seeking help early from Christian marriage counsellors or trusted confidants rather than allowing small conflicts to grow into lasting damage ([familylife.nz](https://familylife.nz)).
