If we knew everything that God knows
Devotional Content:
A number of years ago, Nancy went through a rough time. She was depressed and was not sleeping—I mean, really not sleeping. Night after night she would lie awake and then totally crash for a day or so. The pattern was horrible, and her lack of sleep did nothing to help her depression. We consulted doctors, tried medications, and finally came to the point that we were willing to try anything to help her sleep.
During this time, almost from the first day, I prayed for my wife. I prayed for God to lift the depression and to give her sleep at night. Each morning as I awoke, I could hardly wait to open my eyes and see her in a restful sleep. Yet, each morning I saw her eyes wide open after another sleepless night.
The pattern continued for a couple of months and was wearing hard on both of us. But then the miracle happened. Over the course of a week, we consulted with a new doctor who had a new plan, and I finally awoke one morning to a sleeping wife. As I look back, two things stand out: First, God answered our prayer. Second, during that two-month period, Nancy and I grew in our love for each other in ways I could never have imagined. Even when I felt God was not at work, He was. Whatever you are praying for in your marriage, don’t give up. God is at work!
Today’s One Thing: Ask God to help you see clearly what He wants for your marriage.
