1 Corinthians 7:25-35

Dear Father, head of our one enduring spiritual family,
Thank you that you have not left us uninformed in matters of
family relations. Thank you for the apostle Paul's instructions,
which tell us to be holy in body and spirit and to give ourselves
up to please you. Help me, Father, to do that.
May we be content in the situations in which you have placed us.
May those of us with spouses live, in a sense, as if we had none.
May those of us who mourn over lost loved ones, in a sense, not
mourn at all. May those of us who rejoice, in a sense, not be so
joyful. May those of us who buy and sell, in a sense, act as if we
have no goods. May those of us who deal with the world, in a sense,
act as if we have no dealings with the world at all.
What does it all mean? This world and the form of it are passing
away, so free me from all anxiety! There is no answer apart from
knowing that you are in control and will bring to pass your good
pleasure.
Grant us rest in you! In the name of Jesus I lift up this prayer
to you. Amen.

CAPTIVATING: UNVEILING THE MYSTERY OF A WOMAN'S SOUL, by John & Stasi Eldredge
Many Christian women are tired, struggling under the weight of the
pressure to be a "good servant," a nurturing caregiver, passionate
lover, or capable home manager. What Wild at Heart did for men, this
book can do for women.
