Our marriages are constantly under attack. Once we say “I do”, the devil sets his sights on trying to tear the relationship apart.

What really got me thinking was what happened at the end of the game, right after the other team scored their winning run.

At some point, everyone gets angry at their spouse. It could be over something minor like leaving the cap off of the toothpaste, something on a larger scale like their disrespecting you in front of other people, or something much worse.
