Prayer...the most powerful tool to keep our marriages intact is prayer. When we are at wits end who should we turn to - God. Who do we normally turn to - friends, family. So today's dare is to pray for your spouses heart. If they aren't believers, pray that God will soften their hearts. If they are believers, pray that God will impose His will on them. By the way, this doesn't mean your will, it means His will. If you want to change something about your spouse, remember you can't nag it away but you can turn to God and ask that He change their hearts, souls, minds, moods, etc. God will do what He wants with each of our lives however it is our responsibility to pray for our spouse.
Here's the other thing, I find that praying with my spouse is easy. I seem to find the time for that however, I don't really spend time alone with God praying for my spouse. Only when he has something big happening; a meeting, presentation, trip etc. So today, I will pray for my spouse. I will pray for God to grab a hold of his heart and make it how He wants it. I pray for Gods will to be seen, heard and followed by my husband. And I pray that God will always be the third strand in our marriage, just as we said in our wedding vows.
What is the most important thing you can do for your spouse? PRAYER!
