Yelling Won't Help Your Marriage!

Credit :

The Scottish minister Hugh Blair said, "Gentleness corrects whatever is offensive in our manner." If you doubt that fact, just ask someone who is married. The tone in the home can make or break a marriage. This is why every marriage tune-up requires a communication tone down.

The tone of voice used between husbands and wives isn't the only critical factor in marital harmony, but it sure ranks right up there. After all, "a gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger." (Proverbs 15:1)

Just think how many times in your own life you have seen this play out. Whether you are married or not, I am sure you recognize the way harsh words and angry tones only add fuel to the fire of conflict and disagreement. We have all experienced it personally, and we witness it in the lives of others as well.
