I’d love to help you simplify your meal planning. Check out my new menu planning course here.

Take a moment with me ladies to lift up our husbands in prayer today. @mferrell

 

I'm so thankful to the Lord for the gift of my husband.  He is a man who loves the Lord and desires to do all things to please Him.  May I remind him today how much I love him, honor him and respect him.  May I do him good and not harm all the days of his life and always offer him my best in everything.  I pray that I will always be his faithful helper.

The prayer below is one I have in my prayer notebook along with this one.

Take a moment with me ladies to lift up our husbands in prayer today:

Lord may He love you with all his heart, mind and strength.  I pray he would delight in Your law and that You would open his eyes to the truths in Your Word.  Guide Him Lord to walk by the strength of Your spirit and keep Him in constant communion with You.  

Give him the desire to please You in all things and give him the endurance to run the race You have set before him.  May he have wisdom and strength to lead his family in Your ways and continue to help him manage his time well with all the various tasks he needs to take care of in the day.  


May he always have an eternal perspective on the gifts You have given us to be used to further Your kingdom and that we would not build treasures on earth but in heaven.  Give him a humble spirit and help him to be “quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger.”  


May he continue to share your goodness and love with his children and children’s children so they will know the love their father and grandfather had for You. 


Give him a continuing passion for the lost and keep the truths of the Gospel on the tip of his tongue, so he is always ready to give an answer for the hope that is in him.   


Keep his eyes and heart and mind pure Lord and help him to have wise and good biblical discernment.  May You surround him with other men who love You and will be an encouragement to him in his walk with You.  


I thank you Lord for him and pray that I would truly do him good all the days of his life and be a good helper to my husband.  


I ask these things in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.


Amen

    A beautiful prayer indeed. It brought me almost to tears, and I am not usually over-sensitive

    I love this prayer and could not think of a better time to pray for my husband as we recover from Hurricane Irma. I discovered your post from Favorite Finds Friday link at A Narrow-Minded Woman! Glad to have made the connection!

      Thank you so much for visiting Robin. I so appreciate Kristy’s ministry. Praying for you and your family as you are dealing with the aftermath of the storm.

Welcome to Thankful Homemaker

So thankful you’ve stopped by for a visit. Please grab a cup of coffee or tea and sit a bit. I hope to remind you that contentment in our role as homemakers begins with finding our satisfaction in Christ.

Charles Spurgeon on gentleness and respect:⁣ Ha Charles Spurgeon on  gentleness and respect:⁣
Have your doctrinal views, and all your knowledge of Christ, packed away in a handy form so that, when people want to know what you believe, you can tell them. If they wish to know why you believe that you are saved, have your answer all ready in a few plain, simple sentences; and in the gentlest and most modest spirit make your confession of faith to the praise and glory of God. Who knows but what such good seed will bring forth an abundant harvest?⁣

I can still pick up a book to read to my grandbabies that I read to my children when they were little and be taken back to those days of sitting with my babies on my lap getting lost in the story. I can hear in those memories the giggles, or surprise or sadness depending on the story in the voices of my children. It's been fun to make new memories with my grandchildren and possibly one day even my great-grandchildren.⁣

Just as we turn the calendar and think about our Bible reading plan for the year, I know many of us think about what books will be on our nightstands, in our cars, suitcases, coffee tables, and on our bookshelves.⁣
