I needed to share a song and a prayer that are on my heart today.
A prayer for wives. (source)
Heavenly Father, you have called me to honor and serve my husband in grace, humility and love, and yet so often I let worry, insecurity and fear overshadow that calling. Unburden my heart from worry and expectations. Teach me to relinquish control of my life and marriage to you, for only you are strong enough to carry and sustain it.
Give me the wisdom to value what is eternal, so that I might be truly content with my present circumstances, and not fretful or anxious over family decisions and finances. Teach me to be beautiful as you define beauty. Let me be a creative and enjoyable friend and companion for my husband, gracious and kind, gentle in disagreement and quick to forgive.
Only as you lead me will I become the woman and wife that my husband needs. So lead me, oh Lord. Amen
