Marriage

Dear Lord,

Thank You for Your mercy and grace. Thank You for the gift of forgiveness. We pray for our marriage right now. We pray we would be a couple who truly forgives each other. Please help us to reconcile our hearts and minds so that we remain strong as one. Please help us to cover each other in unconditional love. Please help us to not be easily offended. Please help us to see the good in each other. We pray Your love is manifest in our marriage and that we are a light in this world...

Often, when we find ourselves in situations or struggles in life that we do not have the answer to, or we think the solution we have is not bringing about the results we want, we get stuck.
