Worship. TYMTJ-Day2

It seemed only fitting that on the first Sunday of our focused prayer time, that we pray for our man's worship. 
Worship, as you know, is a matter of the heart. So, let's begin by praying for his heart. I know what it feels like to have a heavy or burdened or uneasy heart. Don't you? Let's come together against this for our guys. 

 

Our focus:
Take the burdens from the heart of my husband.
Replace them with freedom.
In that freedom, begin to teach my husband what it truly means to worship You in spirit and in truth.
Come and meet my husband where he is. 
Allow him to find rest in his home and in his current circumstances.
Begin to lay new words and encouragement on the heart of my husband.
Develop him into a man who is capable of being in a constant spirit of worship.

I really needed this direction! Thanks for posting, Ashley! These prayers go out as I watch Josh wrestle with sheetrock across the room, getting overwhelmed with the new renovation of our home!

I'm loving this!!
I also love that song New Soul... and remember some of those bad things that were happening in the lives of your friends around this time last year. I'll be praying for them also.

Hi Ashley!! We are waiting on fixing my computer for now, so I am typing through a scrambled screen! Do you have an e-mail I can send you our short story of our adventure?? If not, I can try to make it a not too long comment! I check up on you guys every once in a while through your blog (I got it from Megan's blog)...I love following you guys and your beautiful kids! (I'm just not a big "commenter"!) Let me know and I will catch you up...and so good to hear from you!
P.S. I love your TYMTJ...I am following along with you too.

again... thank you Ashley for doing this. Sometimes I find the "words" hard to come by when praying for my husband... it's so easy to pray for everyone else. (does this go along with you hurt the ones you love?)...

but, your words are welcome and I so enjoy them.
Thank you!
