PRAY for your Husband- Every Day!

Will and I recently attended (for the 4th time!) FamilyLife’s Weekend to Remember conference.  And even though I have attended before, I walked away from this weekend in awe of all that God desires for my marriage.  Each year I have attended, something different has stood out to me.  It's probably because I am in this wonderful, crazy life where my seasons are ever-changing (sometimes daily it feels like!) and my needs vary.  And this year was no different. 
As we left the conference, I felt God pushing me to focus on praying FOR my husband.  Sure I pray for him, when he’s having a bad day, when he needs encouragement, or randomly for other things.  But to be very honest, I haven’t done it consistently.  But this "prompting" was asking more from me.  And wouldn’t you know it…yesterday I “came across” a blog post titled 31 Days of Praying for Your Husband.  Coincidence?  I think not! 
As a wife I want, actually I need, to be deliberate and consistent in how I pray for Will.  Will needs a wife who is communicating with God daily and gaining strength from His wisdom and guidance.  I must be purposeful about asking God to protect my husband, guide him, support him, and fill him with love.
Will you join me on this journey?  Use this guide each day (you can print it out also) or pray as you feel God leads you.  But be purposeful in praying- every..single..day.  And after 31 days, start all over again!  This is something God desires wives to do for our husbands for the rest of our lives.  I’m ready for it…are you?
