Pray for Marriages (Love More)


Dearest Prayer Angels,

Do you ever ponder why some marriages have withstood the test of time and some haven't?  Is there a secret that could become a best selling book?

I don't think there is a secret,  but rather  a simple concept that we have difficulty executing;  Love MORE. 
When you are angry, respond by loving MORE.  
When you have been emotionally hurt, respond by loving MORE.
When you have been crushed by disappointment, love MORE.  
Radical? Yes.  Christ-like? Absolutely.

I will most gladly spend and be expended for your souls. If I love you more, am I to be loved less?  2 Corinthians 12:15

Ponder where in your life you could love more.   Then pray for marriages, asking the Lord to generously provide the grace needed for spouses to love more.

Peace, Joy, and Love, 
Janet

Challenge someone to love more.  Pass it on.
