Yesterday in my travels, I stopped at a gas station for fuel.  Walking inside to pay, I heard the male cashier say to the female cashier, “MY wife does not understand, I am glad you do.”   Wow.  Me being me could not help but interject.  “So you don’t trust your wife,” I asked him.

 

He was stunned.  “This is not your conversation,” he replied.  “Yes it is, you are saying this stuff in public for all to hear,” I stated.  “Besides, why are you not telling your wife?  Why are you not spending time with her and helping to understand your views?”

 

The man became defensive,  Imagine that.  “I can talk to whoever I want,” he snapped back. 

 

“No you can not,” I responded.  “You made a promise to her that she would be your all in a woman and that no other woman would take her place,”  Glancing at the female cashier, I noticed her wedding ring.  “Besides, how do you think she feels another man telling her secrets about himself?”  

 

I paused.  “How would you feel if your wife was right now doing what you are doing?”  He snorted and walked away.  The lady cashier finished my transaction and thanked me.  She never looked at conversations that way before and had something to think about.

 

Anytime, a person comes up to you and states that they can only talk to you and not their spouse, they are looking for a way into your life that is destructive.  Seen it too many times.  Always place yourself in a position that your spouse would be proud of you.  Always live like you would want your spouse to live.  Let God guide your marriage, your relationship and make HIM first.  Right Beloved?
