Just sent a text to my husband regarding a comment he made yesterday. I went to court...moral support...for one of our friends yesterday...he is being falsely accused and i just couldn't sit by. Anyway, i sent him a text before court that the diamond necklace he gave our daughter for her 30th was beautiful. He called and said we need to drop our life insurance down, that premiums are too high (his thought process went from necklace to life insurance?!) While we were talking i told him briefly about court. He forgot all about it and then started ranting about the injustice of it all to start with. I told him it ended well. The prosecutor (outside of courtroom) asked some questions and i chimed in....not too much though. So I'm telling husband i spoke and he went off and attacked me..."you and your dad....blah blah".
So, i stewed on his comment and prayed about it this morning. I don't always speak up and defend myself but i did today. I sent him a text that i didn't appreciate that. That led to him unleashing that he is working on his anger issues. And that i shouldn't always see the negative aspects of our marriage as satan induced. That he has free will and sometimes people just make choices. I explained that his anger gave satan a foothold into our marriage. Hey, I'm no saint and i dont blame my husband. ..i do blame satan. I must be speaking a foreign language because he doesn't understand what I'm saying. I told him he's only said 2 nice things to me in 16 months and that he needs to be kind with his words. Well, obviously i hit a nerve. Now he's upset and I'm frustrated and sad. Please pray our hearts are mended.
