Psalm 77:1 - 3

"I cried out to God with my voice -- To God with my voice; And He gave ear to me. In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord; My hand was stretched out in the night without ceasing; My soul refused to be comforted. I remembered God, and was troubled. I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed." Psalm 77: 1 - 3

Days 54 and 55 - A Husband's Prayer


Yesterday was crazy. It was up. It was down. It was all around. I got home from work and was 100% spent. But I found enough energy to drive to the gym and work out with my husband. It was a pathetic workout, but I did it.
After we got home and showered, my husband and I snuggled on the couch. I was still strained and stressed from my whacko day, so I timidly said, "Can I ask you a favor?" Husband replied, "Sure."
I asked, "Will you pray for me? [big pause]...it only has to be ONE sentence. Please."
Husband said, "Okay," took a deep breath and said something like this, "I pray for K and her work situation. Thank you that she is a wonderful mother, a good employee, and such a good person. Amen."
I nearly cried.
I responded with, "That's the best gift you've given me in years. Thank you!"

So THAT's what it feels like to have a praying spouse? It feels MARVELOUS! What an intimate thing, too...praying together to our Creator and Father.
Lord, I pray for more instances such as last night's prayer together. Thank you.
