Prayer:  Lord, thank you for the gift of marriage and intimacy.  Our hearts desire to truly know you.  You are good and your unending kindness and goodness towards us brings us so much hope in this current season.  We pray for encouragement over those who might feel weary.  We pray inspiration over those who might feel tired.  If we find ourselves in a time of wilderness or trial, or in a season of challenge, You are near and You are a very present help in times of trouble.  Infuse our marriages with supernatural wisdom.  Bring your joy, faith and connection to us.  Give us courage to choose to lean in for deeper connection and not to lean out.  We need you to be our cord of three strands that is not easily broken.  We trust you.  In Jesus’ name.  Amen.
