Growth in Young Marriage

My wife and I 20, 22 are working to live in a peaceful way with each other. We are both strong personalities and can bicker like cats and dogs. Sometimes I get anxious to even address things with her because she might get upset or short, or dismissive. I often feel like tip toeing around things because uncertainty of her reaction. Help my voice as the husband to be heard, and listened to. I have made a plan to diligently read the bible with her in 365 days. Please help her to be soft to spiritual leadership, and not fight this decision.
