Prayer Prescription for This Date


PRAYER Rx --- January 19

Dear Lord, remind us that in a marriage it is important for each partner to have the same goals in life, and to hold to the same high moral standards. If I am to live with my mate "until death do us part," then I must help him/her to be more lovable. How? By being more lovable myself! ... Love must be completely unselfish, sacrificial, each wanting to help to develop his/her mate's uniqueness to the fullest. ... It involves risk, doesn't it? But then Your love was offered with a risk too. Help us to remember to make You the center strand of the cord that will hold our marriage together, for our marriage will be at risk without You.

In Jesus' name I pray.

Amen.
