Pray for Marriages (Weak and Weary)

Greetings Prayer Warriors,

We have all seen the stoic and brave-hearted. We’ve also seen the weak and weary, not to mention the broken-hearted; Those who struggle to make their marriage work and those who have lost hope in the fight; Those who can’t imagine a better  marriage and feel stuck in their misery; Those who are eternally hopeful.   They may be your friends, family, coworkers or strangers.  This may be you.  It is for you and these sweet souls that we pray this week. 

He gives power to the faint, abundant strength to the weak. They that hope in the LORD will renew their strength, they will soar on eagles’ wings; They will run and not grow weary, walk and not grow faint. Isaiah 40:29, 31

Lord, help the weary discern your will in their marriages.  We do not know what is hidden, but in prayer we ask your guidance, protection, strength, grace, and peace for them.  Sustain them in your love.  Help them rest in your loving hands, so that they know what holy love feels like.  Heal them in their brokenness, and recreate in them new hearts to love.

We are not discouraged; rather, although our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this momentary light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to what is seen but to what is unseen; for what is seen is transitory, but what is unseen is eternal. 2 Corinthians 4: 16-18

You are not alone.  It is for you we pray!

For the grace of God has appeared, saving all.  Titus 2:11

Peace, Joy, and Love,
Janet

Sustain hope.  Ask more people to pray. Pass it on!
