Pray for Marriages (The Right Temperature)

Greetings Prayer Warriors,

Marriage is like the weather.  Whatever the temperature, there is always something to complain about! 

One who pays heed to the wind will never sow, and one who watches the clouds will never reap. Just as you do not know how the life breath enters the human frame in the mother’s womb, so you do not know the work of God.  Ecclesiastes 11:4-5

Perhaps when it comes to marriage, we all need an attitude adjustment.  Let’s start with gratitude.  What a blessing to have a partner and companion in life!  Is it not a blessing that you are challenged?  Contemplate its effect on your personal growth and that of your spouse.  Since opposites attract, consider the talents and gifts that your spouse uses which enhance your own life.  You may begin to appreciate the wisdom of the Lord and give praise!

Let the peace of Christ control your hearts, the peace into which you were also called in one body. And be thankful. Colossians 3:15

Today let us pray that the Lord gifts marriages with wisdom, perseverance, and an attitude of gratitude no matter what the day’s marital climate brings.  May good things last and dark clouds pass!

Battle on in prayer you warriors! Be grateful, for you are in good company!

The Lord is a warrior, Lord is his name! Exodus 15:3

Peace, Joy, and Love,
Janet

Your prayer preserves marriages from difficult storms. Pass it on!
