PRAYERS FOR & WITH MY WIFE

Father, thank you for my wife. Thank you for my kids. Thank you for all the ways you have provided and shone yourself faithful. At times we have depended on you significantly and others we have seemed to forget you. I am sorry for those times that I have not lead my family well. I pray that you will show grace and mercy. I know that our troubles seem small to others and in someways they are when you compare to many in the world that have nothing. Somehow it doesn’t lessen the pain of the trouble we are feel now. It seems relentless, unfair, and shameful. But we know you are a good God. You are a loving Father. And that you care for us deeply. This pain seems to heavy. Or maybe we are too weak. I pray that you would grant us peace. I pray that you would give us clarity. I pray that you would help us to put you at the forefront of our mind each day so that the circumstances of this life will not lead us on an emotional rollercoaster. We are still young and we want to follow your path and your guidance. We want to be examples for our children and bring them up in the way that they should go. We are weary and burdened. Your yoke is easy and light. Help us to lay our burdens down at your feet. We love you and thank you for all you do and pray this in Jesus name.
