To Put – and Keep – You First Daily

Greatest Treasure,
Although we so easily and regularly convince ourselves otherwise, there is never anything on our daily to-do list as valuable as our time with you. There is simply no replacement for daily time spent in your Word. No matter how packed our day may be, no matter how much we need to get done, no matter how many pressing issues we’re facing, do not allow us to deceive ourselves into believing that we don’t have time for you or that such time somehow limits what else we can accomplish. You call on us to seek your kingdom and your righteousness, with the assurance that you will take care of the rest. Help us show you that we believe your promise by giving you the first fruits of each day, every day, and not the leftovers. Then, show us how graciously and reliably you keep your promise. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

To Salvage Struggling Marriages

Gracious Savior,
Marriage is filled with wonderful blessings for husbands and wives, but it isn’t without its challenges. While every marriage needs your guidance and grace, be present especially in those marriages most at risk. Give spouses in those seasons an extra measure of patience and grace for each other, driven by a renewed determination to devote themselves to doing whatever it takes to save their marriage. Grant healing and recovery to the hurting spouse, and a humble, repentant heart to the spouse responsible for the hurt. Whether the issue at the center of their struggle is a series of smaller ongoing concerns or one or two more substantial matters, help them see a path forward that fills them with hope. Turn Satan’s efforts to destroy marriage against him and revive marriages on life support so that they thrive once again. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
