Creator and Redeemer of my soul, I praise you today. Thank you for another day to worship you, to grow in faith and wisdom. Lord, I ask that you remind me daily that I am your child, I am created in Your image, and You have a purpose for my life. Thank you for giving me parents who taught me to look to you and to seek You as the One and Only Source of life and meaning.
I ask that today, you would give Jeremy a secure identity in You. Remind him that he is Your child, and he is redeemed by Your Son’s blood. Each day as he get’s up and begins the many tasks that lay before him as the head of our home, help him place his work in Your hands. Help him not get distracted by the things of this world, but focus completely on Your Kingdom and the things that have eternal value. Remind him that the only thing he can take with him into Your eternal Kingdom is relationships. You have given him many children, help him find time to invest in each relationship with them. Help him see himself as a father of many, like Abraham. remind him that every child and grandchild is an opportunity to build Your Kingdom.
Help Jeremy and I not be distracted by the world, or the world’s ideas. Let us not fall prey to false doctrine or teaching, but let us be diligent to read, study, and apply Your Word to our lives. Let us, both, make our relationship with you our top priority. You created us for Your Glory and Your Kingdom. Let us both walk in that truth and not be selfish in our marriage, but place it completely in Your hands.
