Prayer Circle

[UpperCu]

Hebrews 12:1-2
Therefore let us also, seeing we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising its shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

The lesson in my church this morning was on this passage. The speaker reminded everyone that God is sovereign and that what Christ suffered was far greater than what any of us is going through.

My prayer for my wife is that she would be relieved from the chains of sin tonight. That she would think about who Christ is and what he did to free us from sin. No matter how great our sin, there is freedom and we have help in dealing with the pain and consequences of sin in our lives.

God, please soften W's heart to your discipline and mercy. Begin the process of drawing her towards you and to obedience. Please be merciful on my W. Her sin is no different than mine or anyone else's. Use our sitch to bring others to a full and complete knowledge of you and your will. Use us to further the gospel, I know our M is on display to many friends and family members. Please use this as an image of your great sacrifice, love, and mercy for all of humanity to our lost friends and family. Lift the fog brought on by the sin of the affair; restore my W's mind and soul.

God, please give me enough wisdom to get through this week. You are sovereign and in faith, I trust that you are actively working on my W, working to restore our M, and are working in the hearts of many others who are watching our sitch closely.

Please make your presence known in the lives of all the LBS on this forum this week. YOU hate divorce. We are your workers eager to act out your commands in obedience to your will. Don't leave us hopeless, but show us how you are working so we might persevere.
