Week 145: Our Marriages

-

In light of Valentine’s Day, I should have done this last week, but better late than never.  Take this week to pray for your own marriages.

Sometimes we focus our prayer attention on others, and that is as it should be, but we should not forget our own marriages.  They should be brought to our Lord frequently, with all their joys and sorrows, successes and failures, beauty and warts.

So, please join us in spending this week focusing on our own marriages, asking our God to make of them what is pleasing to Him.

Just because my blog is taking a break, it does not mean you must take a break. Marriages in all situations need your intercession for them.
