I pray every day! When I get up in the morning, on my way to work, while at work, lying in bed, etc. I think you get the picture. I truly believe in the power of prayer. Just in the sixteen days it has changed my life tremendously. When i pray I feel at peace. Over the years I had faded away from the word and I didn't know how much I missed it until I reconnected with Christ.
Well today I started out with a little prayer, and completed my Love Dare for day 15. This has been a whirlwind for me. It is like I'm learning a new language all together. Anyway today was marriage counselor day and I think it went well, I hope soon we will come to that junction where she will bring us back together instead of individually for counseling. I had to work the evening shift tonight, but was able to get away at lunch to bring some dinner home. My wife had to work out in the field and when she returned home she was wiped out and she didn't need to be doing anything but resting. I don't know if I have brought this up before but she has fibromyalgia. Well anyway while I was there I rubbed down here neck and shoulders so she could take a nap. I left a went back to the field to work.
Anyway for today’s Dare the Three areas I prayed for God to work in my spouses life are:
1. I prayed for her health.
2. I pray that forgiveness would replace resentment and bitterness.
3. I pray that she too will find the love and peace that I have found in the lord.
As for our marriage:
1. I pray for understanding and to make our marriage whole once again.
2. I pray for “Love” and “Honor” become the norm in our marriage.
Stan, sounds great... Learning a new language can always be good. Especially in this instance. Love is a language everyone understands....
Thanks, Sean. Well Day 17 & 18 will be hard to complete. This morning she informed me by text that she is feeling Confused, Sad & Depressed. She said she needs some "me" time. What that means i don't know. But after she went to see the marriage counselor she left for out of town to stay with her girlfriend. She said she didn't want to go to her parents she needed to be alone and figure a couple of things out.
I just told her I loved her so you do what you have to do. See my Day 17 entry.
I will comment there.
