Greetings Prayer Warriors,
Peace! In the world there is much to be troubled about. Perhaps in your personal life and your marriage, there is too. But remember, you are in this world, but not of this world. True peace can only be found in Christ and Christ can be found in the Word.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1
Read and listen with your heart. Just as you won’t ever truly know your spouse if you don’t spend time with them and listen to what they are trying to communicate (verbally and non-verbally), you won’t know Him who is Peace, if you don't carve out time to spend with the Lord.
If you are willing to listen, you can learn. Sirach 6:33
Sometimes when trying to get a point across to a spouse, we can do all the talking. It becomes a monologue, not a dialogue. So too with Christ. If we are constantly “talking” in prayer, we may never hear a response. Listen to Him in Scripture.
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly. Colossians 3:16
Continue to pray for the building up and healing of marriages. Then listen and be at peace.
“I have told you this so that you might have peace in me. In the world you will have trouble, but take courage, I have conquered the world.”.
John 16:33
Peace, Joy, and Love,
Janet
Spread His peace. Pass it on!
