“How can I get along better with my spouse?” Many wives and husbands ask themselves.

One way, is to do a better job of expressing divine Love.

Selfishness, impatience, close-mindedness, anger, human will and their kin are enemies to harmony in the home. They divide, isolate and alienate. To rid the family temperament of arguing and ill-will, the mental atmosphere governing the family must be free of the evil in thought that leads to outward conflict.

When we consciously decide to love more, we decide to hate less. We can’t love and hate at the same time.

Love is more than a pleasant human emotion. True Love is God, the mightiest power in the universe for harmonizing relationships and inspiring good-will.

A solid step to harmonizing with our spouse is to first harmonize with Love. Let the love of Love take over your attitude and perspective replacing any resentment, bitterness, or strife with forgiveness, compassion and understanding.

Getting along better with our spouse typically includes doing a better job of expressing God’s affectionate nature. The Love we express softens hearts, grabs attention, resolves difficulties, inspires cooperation, and solidifies oneness.

Feeling more united with divine Love is an important step to feeling more united with our partner.
