This week we talked about communication and problem solving. Both of which are very very important topics in any type of relationship. In times of family conflict, do you either move towards or away?
How we communicate with others is important, how we do so is with words, tone and non verbal communication. When speaking with people we much make sure we use the right words, tone and body language. You could be listening to the person but could be on your phone at the same time. That isn't showing someone that they have your full undivided attention. It is so easy to misunderstand people that we must be careful or too quick to judge a certain situation. Get all the facts and information before you judge.
Communication and Problem solving in marriage is critical. We need to stop being angry and love each other. Contention is never the way to handle and solve problems. It can move us away from a person. When discussing important topics or issues it is important to express your love for the those who are there and then to begin with a prayer. That sets the mood for the discussion and then after you've talked finish in prayer. My husband and I tried this the other night and our discussion worked so well and we were able to resolve some problems we were facing by talking them out together. Communication is the key!! If you have good communication then you can be good at problem solving!
