Today`s prayer

Dear Father and Creator, There are so many people who have marriage issues that need intervention. Sometimes one spouse is strong in the faith and the other is weak; sometimes one is held back by old strongholds that need to be broken; sometimes the communication line contains a lot of static and neither can hear the other clearly; sometimes one spouse carries much more responsibility than the other; sometimes the ungodly attitudes of selfishness, jealousy or laziness pop up and wreak havoc; sometimes the family is so busy that husband and wife do not make time to nurture their relationship--they just coexist; sometimes health issues strain the marriage. God there are sooo many things that pull against a healthy relationship. I pray for every married couple today. I pray that you will touch their hearts with compassion for one another. I pray that you will open their eyes to see the truth. I pray that each will think of the other above himself or herself. I pray that every couple will share responsibilities.

Above all, I pray that every couple will look to you as the center of their marriage, as it is a spiritual union--not just physical. May you be glorified and pleased and may marriages be blessed.

In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
