Dear Heavenly Father

Thank you for my beloved husband. Though I often struggle to be grateful to an for him, he is one of the greatest blessings you have gifted me with. He is kind and patient. He is never jealous. He bears with me and all of my emotional storms.

Lord, I am but a lowly and weak woman. But with your strength and everlasting grace, I know I can become strong. My Father in Heaven, I ask that you help me in my struggle to become an excellent wife. "For her worth is far above jewels." How I wish to have such worth! Can it possibly be? Lord, I pray that it may be so. I pray that I can keep a right attitude, respecting my husbands wishes, abilities and preferences. I pray I might listen, and encourage. I pray that I can focus on his good points, and get beyond any bad, just as he does for me. What a wonderful man, to love me in spite of all the frustrations I must cause him!

Lord, my husband is a wonderful, loving man. Help me to be the wife that he deserves and that I long to be.

Thank you Lord God.

I say these words in the name of my savior, Jesus Christ.

Amen.

I am chronically disorganized. I struggle to keep dishes washed, clothing picked up, put away and clean. My cooking could use substantial improvement. But I keep trying. Everyday I work to be the best wife and mother I possibly can. It's hard, but with the Lord by my side, I know that I can be an excellent wife.
