For your husbands

To all my women friends who read this blog I wanted to share something with you.  I read a stranger's blog who often talks about how she is striving to be a better partner for her husband.  She shared a really great website with her readers.  It is basically 31 prayers that you can pray for your husband; they are short and simple but oh so wonderfully said.  What a great valentine's gift for your husbands.  Too often my prayers repeat themselves.  It was kind of refreshing to have new things to start praying for.  He doesn't even know I've been to doing this....until now I guess if he is reading this blog post.  I love him so much.  I have always prayed for him daily. I think prayer is the best gift a person can give another person.  To me, nothing says love more than caring for someone enough to be their spiritual partner in life.

During some of my trials I would discover complete strangers who had heard my story and found out that they were praying for me. It would bring me to tears to learn of such people.  Praying for a stranger is a true reflection of Christ's love.  I literally felt Christ's love enveloping me through learning of those people who were praying for me.  So.....I can think of no better love gift this valentine's day than a commitment to say these prayers for 31 days for my hubby.  Yes, I pray for him daily anyways, but this just seemed so much more powerful than the prayers I had been praying.  Hope some of you can take from this too.
