People who think the Bible isn't relevant in 2011 could learn from the wise words of Jesus when he asked, "Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?" (Matthew 7:3).A common relationship killer is doing just that. Finding fault with every little thing that your partner does wrong, and giving little notice to your own shortcomings.
For example, you might be very aware of your partner’s pestering or nagging, but totally unaware of your own judgmental behavior. You might be very aware of your partner’s laziness, but completely unaware of your own anger issues.
The problem here is as long as your eyes are on your partner instead of on yourself, you will continue to believe that the onus for 'fixing things' is primarily on your partner. This scenario...and this relationship is doomed to fail.
