Pray for Marriages (Resolve to Love)

Greetings Prayer Warriors,


Marriage is about love. Not the “feelings” that initially draw a couple together, but rather the commitment made to a life-long action of self-giving for the good of the other. That kind of love is much more difficult.  


We love because he first loved us. 1 John 4:19


We must resolve daily to love and…


Make

Resolution to

Replenish 

I

Affectionately

Generously

Excessively


Marriage is worth fighting for, and while self-denial takes effort, it pays in virtuous growth. 


Lord, we are weak, but you are strong. Even when we try, we often lack charity. Clothe us with your love, that we may bring it into every word and action with our spouse. Restrain our tongues, when hurtful words challenge the fortress of our lips. Hear our prayers, as we ask for a daily abundance of grace to love, cherish, and honor our spouse. Guide us as we seek to grow so much in love, that we may lavishly and generously bestow it. Jesus, we trust in You!


Remain in my love. John 15:9


Peace, Joy, and Love,

Janet


Success depends on our prayers for one another. Grow the army and pass it on!
