My wife got run off the road a while back. Some guy didn’t like the fact that Kathi had slowed down to merge onto the highway behind a school bus, and literally forced her onto the berm so he could get past.

Reflecting on this incident, I was struck by the thought that the same could be true if we men develop a disordered dedication to work. That might sound crazy, but how many people do you know who are divorced partly because of ridiculous work schedules? We all go through challenging times in our careers, and it’s not always possible to maintain a healthy balance. However, if work is consistently prioritized above your wife’s needs, it’s a matter for prayer and reflection. Let’s pray for one another.
