Your Mother and I have very strong feelings about marriage. Aside from your salvation and you having a relationship with Jesus, the next biggest desire we have for your lives is that you have a marriage that is blessed, fulfilling, and a spouse that is nothing short of incredible.
In the past we have prayed for your future marriages and your future spouses, from time to time. But this past week it was layed on our hearts that this specific prayer deserves more diligence and persistence than we have been giving. So every night this week we have prayed about this, and what I want to share with you, and what I want you to understand, is this is a prayer that we are never going to stop praying. Everyday from this day forward we are going to pray for your future marriage, and for your yet-to-be-known future spouse.
Our prayer is that the Lord prepare and shape your hearts to be sold out to Jesus, constantly molding you into the person he called you to be; the person your future spouse needs you to be. We’re also praying that exact same thing for your future spouse–whoever that is going to be. We want you to have a love-story relationship that knows no end. A relationship where you’re both honored and blessed, and have a rock-solid trust that no matter what happens unfaithfulness and abandonment aren’t an option. The world would love to make you feel like this type of relationship is impossible, but remember “greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world”. The will of Jesus is perfect, and we’re committing to putting our trust in Him that He leads you into the marriage that is part of His plan.
