In my devotions this morning, I read a very familiar passage in Matthew, chapter 14 in which Jesus walks on the water, Peter gets out of the boat and the winds and waves miraculously become calm again. Like I said, familiar, right?
But the second verse in the passage, verse 23, says that Jesus went up into the hills alone to pray and stayed their till after dark.
It wasn't unusual for Jesus to do this, but we notice that this was often the case right before some of the greatest miracles recorded in the Gospels. Jesus prayed!
What if we as couples prayed together before starting our day, before making decisions, before going to bed at night and before we go to sleep (there is a difference and who wouldn't welcome the miraculous then as well)?
What would your passionate prayers to God usher into your marriage?
