May You bring our hearts even more close together as we draw near to You and near to each other in Jesus’ name AMEN!

Dear Lord,

Thank You for the hope that we have in Christ. Hope is such an amazing gift. Hope gives us encouragement to live in this dark world and to endure through hardship. Hope is beautiful. Hoping for better days in my marriage, when times seemed so depressing, helped save my marriage. I pray I would remain hopeful all the days of my life in Jesus’ name AMEN!

Dear Lord,

Dear Lord,

Thank You for my husband. Thank You for the love we share. I pray that we would always pursue each other. I pray we would make date night a priority. Help us to focus on our relationship and intentionally consider each other. I pray we would set time aside each week specifically to spend quality time together. I pray we would have strong desires for each other, that we would never neglect each other, and I pray our love continues to grow deeper in Jesus’ name AMEN!

Dear Heavenly Father,

I pray for purity in marriages. I pray that if any wife or husband is struggling with sin that they would run to You and repent. Convict our hearts Lord, to search any sin in our lives, to be self-aware and willing to bring that sin into the light. Help us to overcome temptation and encourage others to also flee temptation. Guard our minds from the things of this world and help us to fix our eyes on you Jesus! AMEN!

Dear Lord,

Thank You for my marriage. I know that You have an incredible purpose for my marriage. I pray that I would always see my marriage as my first and most important ministry. I pray I would love my husband and serve him. I pray others would see our marriage and know that it is only because of You that we were we are today. May our marriage reflect Your gospel as we love each other and may You be glorified in Jesus’ name AMEN!
