99). that people change, but You never do
100). that although some Christians seem phony You know the difference

Lord, I pray for all marriages today. Help us to be kind and gentle to one another. Lord, Satan wants us to give up and see the negative in our spouses. Please help us only see the good in them. Help us remember why we fell in love way back then. Help us to apply what Your Word teaches us! Help us to take responsibility when we are wrong. Help us to get down on our knees and pray together for our marriages! Thank You for never giving up on us. ~In Jesus, name. Amen.

Click here to hear my song today! I encourage You to listen to the very end of it.

Much love,
Angie xoxo

I don't know if you know this song or not...it's titled: Wonderful Words of Life. It's a good ole Baptost hymn. It came to my mind as I read your post today. You were speaking 'words of life' to me. I needed to hear that today. Thank you for sharing. God bless you with a wonderful week ahead!

Love the way your heart for Him came thru your list...they were words of life and may they be words of life to all of us to share with us....Blessings on your week...

Wonderful words...
Loved your prayer for couples. Last week when I heard that a former Vice President & his wife were separating after 40 years... and one reason was that their schedules caused them to grow a part, I wanted to shout - change your schedules! Your marriage is more important than any schedule, speaking engagement or project you are involved in!

Girlfriend... I wish you lived closer too... we could golf,cycle and yes - I would share my veggie garden bounty with you!!!

I think you wrote this post just for me! My hubby & I were both home today, and we were both feeling very critical and sarcastic with eachother....... not a good feeling! I needed this reminder!!! I need to pray!!! We celebrate our 33rd anniversary soon! And ooh, that frustration and anger I was feeling today, wasn't good! Thanks for reminding me!

P.S. ACK, you are from Michigan? You have got to be kidding! I didn't think there were any bloggers in Michigan! You don't live anywhere near the southwest corner, near St. Joe, do you? Just wondering!!!
