"God, by his mighty power at work within us, is able to do far more than we would ever dare to ask or even dream of--infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, or hopes."
Ephesians 3:20 (LB)
Let's Pray:
Lord, thank you so much for giving us your amazing promises in the Bible! Thank you for all you've done over the past month and thank you for what you're doing that I can't see right now. I pray that your power at work within (____) is able to do far more than he would ever dare to ask or even dream of--infinitely beyond his highest prayers, desires, thoughts, or hopes.
I pray you will fill him with your desires for him and help him to see the talents you've divinely placed in him and show him your purpose for his life. If he's personally struggling with doubt or feelings of disappointment in himself, I ask you to place your words of encouragement on my lips that I might speak life into his heart. Help me, Lord, to speak only what will build him up and keep me from ever hurting him with thoughtless criticism or careless sarcasm. In Jesus' name, AMEN.
Wives,
Our men are often portrayed as and even enjoy us thinking of them as our "Macho Hunks" who can take on the world; but sometimes we start to think they can do anything and this mind set can begin to look like expectations in their minds. When we start to become discouraged about something we think they should be or do, we need to remember that inside they are human just like us and are as needy as we are. So lets give them extra grace when they fall short of our expectations today.
-Kristy
