Read & Reflect

And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

Ephesians 4:30-32 (NIV)

Do you grieve the Holy Spirit in your marriage? Reflect on this when you and your spouse come together for prayer.

Pray Together

Lord, if we have grieved your Holy Spirit in our marriage, please forgive us. May our home and relationship be free of bitterness, rage, anger, brawling, slander, and the desire to hurt each other. Change our hearts and show us the way to be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as you forgive us. Amen.
