How can two walk together lest they be agreed?

This is Amos 3:3, and boy is it true.  Have you ever been around a couple that can’t agree on anything.  Nobody wants to be around them; it is hard to imagine they enjoy being together.   Early on in our marriage – Rebekah and I used to argue about the best toothpaste to use (believe it or not).  She like Colgate and I liked Crest.  Really and truly, there isn’t much difference between the two.  Is it worth arguing even once about something like this?  But people argue about such simple things all the time.   People don’t like to give up being right and let the other person have their way. 

Being right is highly over rated.  We need to adapt ourselves to one another.  Agreement doesn’t necessarily mean we think the other person is right; it doesn’t mean we feel like yielding what we want.  It does mean we make a decision to put the realtionship above who is right and who is wrong.  We can decide to agree even if we don’t feel like it.  THEN we can walk together.
