a prayer a day: for relationships

i think praying over relationships is really really important.  they were designed by God to be a representation of His very own relationship with His bride, the church, and i know that He finds relationships between men and women to be good and pleasing.. so of course there is going to be a lot of attack and a lot of hurt in this area in the world because if something is meant to represent Christ, there is no doubt that satan is going to try to thwart and taint it.

so maybe there is a relationship that comes to your mind that you know you should pray for:                         that couple that is having a hard time, your parents', your aunt & uncle, your best friend who's getting married,  etc..

maybe it's your own relationship, or maybe you're not in one,

whatever the case, whatever the status, whatever the thought that is coming to your mind, whatever the situation of your heart on this topic, let's pray baby pray!

haha, first for revelations of God's intentions for relationships... what He wants them to look like.

for Him to reveal ways and inspire ideas about how to better serve the other person if you're in a relationship, and for Him to reveal the parts that should not be there or are not glorifying to Him,

maybe, as a single person, it's for comfort in the midst of hurt or lonliness, or for God to even further reveal Himself as our satisfaction, for wisdom about entering a relationship, etc, you know what it is!

maybe it's even for ways to serve another person or another couple to be revealed (offering to babysit so that they can go out, offering to listen or hold someone accountable, etc!)


whatever the case, this is important!  i think God cares about this topic really a lot.


p.s.

i've mentioned diane comer and the wisdom that pours from her as she listens to the Lord, but i wanted to mention it again.  i always find myself coming back to her blog, he speaks in the silence, for reminders and encouragement and to learn, especially when it comes to relationships, and i just can't speak enough of how much it has blessed me.  i don't have much wisdom on this topic, but i definitely know where to find it, so i want to point you to such a wealth of it... finding this is like gold!  obviously, she is a person, she is not God, and the words she says should be tested and held up to God's word because everything she says will not be completely perfectly right, but i believe she has been so inspired by God and that you need to click >>>THIS<<< and scroll baby scrooollllllll! especially if you're wondering about godliness in a relationship, and actually even if you're not!  oh please oh please!  soak in this wissssdoooooooomm, friend!!  for men and women alike!

oh wait, did ya click it yet?? (( http://www.hespeaksinthesilence.com/category/letters/page/5/ ))

    Skipping like a calf loosed from its stall,

    I’m free to love once and for all
    And even when I fall I’ll get back up
    For the joy that overflows my cup 
    Heaven filled me with more than enough
    Broke down my levees and my bluffs
    Let the flood wash me.
