Honesty is the Best Policy

Nothing erodes a relationship – even a marriage – faster than lies. The importance of honesty in a marriage cannot be overstated.

Colossians 3:9 gives us a powerful reminder as followers of Christ. Because we have a new identity in Jesus and have “stripped off” our old selves, lying is no longer acceptable behavior. The verse puts it simply: “Don’t lie to each other.”

What do you need to be honest about with your spouse today? Is there a habit you’ve been concealing or an annoyance you’ve been avoiding bringing up? You may be surprised what bringing those things out into the open can do to strengthen your bond.
