Notes on relationships with some
paraphrased and prudent, pithy advice from some helpful people....
Dr. Phil—aim to meet the needs of the
two people involved/ you can help heal your partner's fear and anger
by stating your needs firmly and hearing what their needs are. You
must do it differently from how you have been doing it and realize
that relationships can change even with only one partner having the
motivations.
John 14:12--- “and whatsoever you ask
in my name, that I will do...” (not self centered requests but
asking in HIS name) reading on to 14:16-17
Martha Peace---God has planned a
ministry for each spouse which is to make the other their ministry.
Tara Bennett-Goleman and Harville
Hendricks----our left over baggage from early relationships can make
relationships emotional battlegrounds but can also help us do the
work that will free us.
We tend to draw people to us that
repeat these early woundings or “schemas”.
Partners can work together to dismantle
these triggers and use empathy to foster compassion for the other.
MIRRORING is a term to look up and use.
Now get to work and look up the verse and the term...do it yourself whether your spouse does it or not!
