This article ends asking those who are married these things:
- Did I make my spouse the highest priority in my life after God today? How so? How can I improve upon this tomorrow?
- Was I forgiving of my husband/wife, or did I harbor resentment towards his or her shortcomings? Did I make my home more like a confessional or a courthouse today? When my spouse made a mistake or was imperfect did I quickly and joyfully offer forgiveness?
- When I fell short today, even in small matters, did I seek forgiveness from my spouse?
- Did I work hard today to show my spouse just how much God loves him/her? How so?
- Did I truly listen to my spouse today? Did I take the time to communicate clearly and openly?
- When things went wrong, did I focus on how I contributed to the problem, or on how my spouse “messed up?”
- Did I serve my spouse today in both big and small ways?
- Have I prayed for my spouse today? Have I prayed with him/her today?
- Did I prefer to be “right” today, or did I prefer to be “happy?”
- Have I given my spouse the benefit of the doubt today, trusting that he/she also wants to have the best marriage possible?
- Did I treat my spouse like my best friend today, or simply as a partner or roommate?
- How have I fallen short in helping him/her get to heaven?
