Every Wed. we pray and fast for one another for resolution to our marriages and our lives. Every Wed. we can check in and let everyone know we have prayed for the group. Prayer does mighty things and group prayer is even better. "For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst." Matt 18:20.

I think it will be great to see how God works in our lives and heals our marriages and us. If you want to pray with us I will be more than happy to add your name to the list below.

Restoration for a Troubled Marriage
Lord, I know that You intended that the greatest and most rewarding human relationship in my life would be my marriage. Help my wife and I to resolve any differences that we may have had. Rekindle in our hearts the love, joy and passion we had for each other when we first were married. Lord, heal our hearts from the hurts of the past, and bring unity to our marriage.

Help us to forgive each other for mistakes we have made and to start fresh again. Help me to be loving, understanding, and sensitive toward my wife. Reveal to me areas where I need to change in order to improve our relationship.

Remind us and help us to never criticize or speak in anger to each other. Help us to put a guard over our mouths so that we never say words that bring hurt, pain, or discouragement to each other. Show us in Your Word, Lord, how to love and give to each other. Let our lives be an example of Your Love and Grace.

Lord, restore our marriage completely and totally in Jesus' Name. Amen.

Just bringing this up to the top and letting ya'll know the knees are getting a workout today.

From my daily reading yesterday; Psalm 121

I look up to the mountains-- does my help come from there?
My help comes from the LORD, who made the heavens and the earth!
He will not let you stumble and fall; the one who watches over you will not sleep.
Indeed, he who watches over Israel never tires and never sleeps.
The LORD himself watches over you! The LORD stands beside you as your protective shade.
The sun will not hurt you by day, nor the moon at night.
The LORD keeps you from all evil and preserves your life.
The LORD keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever.

Hope everyone's day is going well Bless everyone here.

If I am not on the list Steadfast...please add me. I will be praying for all as all pray for me and the restoration of my family. QUICK UPDATE- My wife has stopped going to the Christian counselor and says that she wants her present relationship to end so that she can return home?? I am praying and also request prayer that God will intervene and end the relationship that she is in, although I do not understand her thinking, I am giving her her space and just told her that I would continue to pray for her and that God can and will move mountains but sometimes, you have to push on the mountain a little <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> to start it moving. Not sure if that was the right answer to give her. I just trust God that He will come through as always and in His time. God Bless

jeff...,
You are. Seven lines from the bottom of the list. btw, I have taken over for the list because the Lord has blessed S&C with renewing his marriage and he has chosen to devote his time to that. Amen, and Praise be to Our Father.

God's Grace and Mercy be with you,
