COLOSSIANS 3:14-15
"Beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity;
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful.."

Eph 5:22-29
Respect must be actively shown; John 14:15 - If we love God, we show it through our actions.
Sometimes, we have the attitude that we can't or should not change to accomodate the needs of our spouses/others. This is selfish and what we hear from the world.
The world says:
*Be yourself
*Be true to yourself
*Don't change
The Bible says:
Romans 12:1 Don't be conformed to the world, but be transformed.
Putting it all together:
*Eph 5:25 Husbands love your wives
- As Christ (he gave himself)
- He Acted on His love for us
*Rom 12:12 Be transformed
-Change is necessary for Christians
-I Cor. 6:11 "Such WERE some of you..."
-I Cor. 7:3 Change necessary for spouses; should not put your interests before their needs; Should look out for the interests, needs of others
Mark 10:45 "For even the Son of Man came not to have service rendered to HIm, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for (instead of) many.
