Trust is an important factor in all marriages. If you don’t trust God in all circumstances, including your marriage, the relationship will be troubled. When you lack trust in God, it’s easy to develop trust issues. Sometimes sin infiltrates our lives and the marriages of our children. Sin can weigh so heavily on our hearts that we feel like your spirit is crushed and our heart is broken. Sin has the ability to drive us away from God. However, when we trust God, even during the unexpected storms in your life, we discover there is nothing that can’t be conquered. If you are looking for a godly wife for you son who will be with him during the unexpected storms in life, pray this prayer: Dear Lord, I pray that You teach my husband’s future wife to trust in You so that when the unexpected storms come in their marriage, she will expect peace in the midst of those storms, knowing that You are near. I pray that she will hear You and recognize that You are with them every step of the way.

Every word your son speaks in his marriage should be encouraging, though this may not always be the easiest task when arguments and conflicts arise. It’s important that we make sure the words we speak in our marriages are positive and uplifting. Ask God to grant your son the ability to speak kindly when those conflicts arise and hold your tongue when you have the impulse to say something that will bring your wife down. Our words have great power so we should use them to encourage and inspire. If this is your desire for your son, pray this prayer: Dear Lord, I pray that my future daughter-in-law reflects You and Your love. I also pray that You grant my son the ability to speak kindly to his future wife, respond gently at times and to hold his tongue. Amen.

Do you worry about your son finding a godly wife so much that you have little peace of mind. If you are a chronic-worrier, seek God. The Bible tells us, “The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. Those who know Your name trust in You, for You, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you” (Psalm 9:10). Through all the hard times, God will never forsake you. Trust in Him with all your heart. The reason we are so worried sometimes is because we lack a prayer life and total trust in God. If you are concerned about your son’s future, pray this prayer: Dear Lord, into Your hands I place my worries, cares and troubles. Into Your wisdom, I place my son’s path, direction and goals. I pray that He places His life in your hands and that his future wife does the same. Amen.
