One Thing to Grow Your Marriage Each Day

DAY 11 OF 31

When you ask for this God will show up

Devotional Content

Some weeks I am too busy. Since I love what I do, busyness often sneaks up on me and my life gets out of balance. My marriage can linger on the sidelines. Next to God, Nancy is the most important person in my life. I used to jump through hoops to make up for not spending the time and effort with her that I needed to. That’s not all bad, and I often need to do that, but I want to let you in on something that really has made a difference for me. I consistently pray that God will increase my love for Nancy. I know it sounds like a simple request, but you will be amazed how God shows up. When I am distracted, I think of her. I feel this awe as I look at her. I want to do things that show her my love. I used to think I could build up the love tank and then go on cruise control for a few days. That does not work. I drain it empty every day and then need a fill-up. I learned that when I put the ball in God’s court with anything that has to do with my marriage, He shows up big time! 

Today’s One Thing: Pray today for God to increase your love for your spouse. Then get ready for Him to answer!
