Even Fairy Tale Women sit around and talk about their husbands. We as women can find ourselves "gossiping" about our husband too much if we aren't careful. Ranting and raving about this and that, mine doesn't do this or is lazy..... etc. We can get caught up in putting our husbands down, talking bad about them instead of lifting him up and talking positive about him. I myself have been guilty of this same thing. Lately the Lord has been convicting me of this very thing.
Instead we should pray for the Lord to teach us how to pray for our husbands and for him to give us a fresh perspective, a positive outlook, and renewed relationship with the man he has given us. Maybe we need to pray for ourselves as a wife, to submit to our husbands, to enable us to honor and respect him and rely on his guidance, care and to teach us how to be a suitable helper for him. Let us be an excellent wife who is her husband's joy and crown!
We should pray daily for our husband's temptations, fears, priorities, health, job, relationships, purpose, choices, fatherhood, protection and his faith with the Lord Jesus Christ. That is just naming a few. Stormie Omartian has a great little book of prayers specifically to pray for your husband. "The Power of a PRAYING WIFE, Book of Prayers"
