Mary Winters...

Mary Winters is writing a bible study about the Garden of Eden.  The following paragraph is from her work and it applies well to marriages.  If one person in a marriage relationship is willing to stand with Jesus, it has tremendous influence.

When a believer in Jesus chooses to act out the will of the Father, act out the Word of God, speak out the Word of God, or to remain in love, patience, gentleness, self-control etc… instead of reacting in the flesh with anger etc…., this releases the Holy Spirit into the atmosphere and into others.  It displaces thedarkness and displaces the lies of the darkness.

What do you think?  How is this the "difference maker" in conflict?
