1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,766
Every marriage has clashes, but not every clash builds marriage.

2
00:00:06,766 --> 00:00:12,266
Disagreements are part of any godly union.

3
00:00:12,266 --> 00:00:15,833
But disagreements should lead to greater agreement.

4
00:00:15,833 --> 00:00:20,600
Misunderstanding should produce greater understanding.

5
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:27,700
When we waste our misunderstandings,

6
00:00:27,700 --> 00:00:34,500
rather than learning from them, we end up repeating them.

7
00:00:34,500 --> 00:00:44,166
And that is a common cause of love growing cold - because we’re living in the past.

8
00:00:44,166 --> 00:00:48,233
You remind your husband of the past.

9
00:00:48,233 --> 00:00:52,900
You remind your wife of the past when conflicts come

10
00:00:52,900 --> 00:00:55,600
and so you end up repeating them,

11
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,666
rather than learning from them, rather than growing through them.

12
00:00:59,666 --> 00:01:01,833
Misunderstanding must come.

13
00:01:01,833 --> 00:01:03,633
Disagreement must come.

14
00:01:03,633 --> 00:01:05,366
Conflict must come.

15
00:01:05,366 --> 00:01:10,000
But as Christians who understand the past is over,

16
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,400
we are to learn from them, grow through them.

17
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:18,966
There's a difference between life experience and life lessons.
