The JOY of Knowing Someone's Heart

We all know people can be a source of joy or a source of despair.  Relationships are shakey.  They constantly evolve.  They are as stable as quick sand.  One moment a conversation is flowing smoothly and the next it explodes into emotional chaos.  People are not constant; only God Almighty is unchanging.  Today I found myself rejoicing that I know the true character of my husband.  No matter how emotionally crazy our interactions may become, I know the good intentions he has.  I can have hope for our marriage because I believe in his good intentions; therefore, I can find joy, even when we have our misunderstandings.  I'm thankful that today I was able to look back on my circumstances and take joy in them.
