Greetings Prayer Warriors,
When one ponders Christ’s earthly life, they are given a roadmap of how to live. It’s a bit intimidating to say the least. Christ emptied himself, humbled himself, was loving, gentle, and kind, righteous, and obedient to the will of the Father.
“Not my will but yours be done.” Luke 22:42
When we get married, we make all sorts of vows to our spouse AND to God as we stand before Him. Yet, how hard those vows are to live as the years pass. Perhaps that’s why God designed marriage to be permanent, because it would be very easy on a bad day to find justification to leave! Yet all are called to imitate Christ; To be patient, sincere, and loving even when we feel persecuted, misunderstood, taken for granted, mistreated, etc. We are not called to be a doormat, but to perform works of mercy such as teach the ignorant, correct sinners, bear wrongs patiently, and forgive wrongs willingly, all with the gentleness of Jesus.
Forgive us our sins for we ourselves forgive everyone in debt to us, and do not subject us to the final test. Luke 11:4
Turning the other cheek is hard.
Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit, because without me you can do nothing. John 15:5
Grace becomes more plentiful when we pray and helps us grow in the needed virtues. Let’s unite in prayer, begging for grace and blessings to be multiplied exponentially, so that more marriages will flourish. Pray10!!!
When you pray, go to your inner room, close the door, and pray to your Father in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will repay you.
Matthew 6:6
Peace, Joy, and Love,
Janet
