“Wives, give way to your husbands… Husbands, love your wives” (Colossians 3:18, 19).
A man named Larry came home from work one evening and was astonished to find his wife cramming her belongings into a suitcase. “What on earth are you doing?” he cried. “I can’t stand it anymore,” she shrieked. “Thirty-two years we’ve been married, and we just keep on bickering and quarreling and ignoring each other. I’m leaving!” Stunned, Larry watched his wife close the suitcase, lug it down the stairs, and proceed out the front door and down the street. Suddenly, he sprang into action. He ran into the bedroom, grabbed a second suitcase, quickly threw some of his stuff into it, ran after his wife and shouted, “Alice, you’re absolutely right — and I can’t stand it either. Wait a minute, I’m going with you.”
