This week, in Revive Your Marriage, we’ve been talking about how to revive your attitude! We started with looking at letting things go, moved into why he won’t meet your needs, and then talked about submission.
Today I thought I’d post this great video I found a few months ago, which encapsulates some of these things. Hope you find it encouraging!
Sheila Wray Gregoire has been married for 25 years and happily married for 20! She loves traveling around North America with her hubby in their RV, giving her signature "Girl Talk" about sex and marriage. And she's written 8 books. About sex and marriage. See a theme here? Plus she knits. Even in line at the grocery store.

Lol…”I’m even in a dumb life group!”
wow! She’s wise and she doesn’t waste any words, does she?? good stuff, Sheila!
Had to watch the video twice! But then it occurred to me, “What are you focused on?” Am I focused on trying to win my husband back, or am I focused on God and what He wants me to do? Thanks!
This was great! Thanks for sharing 🙂
I love this video! She gets right to the point! Thanks for sharing!
Wow!!! That was gd very blunt and to the point !! I’ve been that woman and still am Sometimes difintly gives u a new perspective very eye opening wake up call thanks
So what’s he doing calling up his wife’s best friend for advice? That’s messed up! I liked her advice though, loving regardless is cool.
I think he called her “sis”, so she’s his sister, but maybe also the wife’s friend.
oh good! I missed that part.
I love this! It also makes me VERY thankful I am married to a man who is not a fighter! Mind you, he’s the other extreme and retreats if he thinks I’m attacking him, but still. I think having a husband who yells at me would be far worse!
I only just got to this. At first, I was thinking ‘okay, not getting it’, but stuck with it. Glad I did.
The sis is right… And I had to laugh when they ended up talking to the same gal. But it is so true. What are you focused on? What are trying to do? Be Christ-centered, and Christ-like? Or are you doing what you to get the other person to love you.
And I’m so glad we are not a yelling couple. I’d be a quivering ball of tears. 😛
Thanks, Sheila!
