Ruth 1:16-17 (NKJV)
But Ruth said: “Entreat me not to leave you, Or to turn back from following after you; For wherever you go, I will go; And wherever you lodge, I will lodge; Your people shall be my people, And your God, my God. [17] Where you die, I will die, And there will I be buried. The LORD do so to me, and more also, If anything but death parts you and me.”
Prayer: Father God, the words of Ruth are the cry of my heart for our family, for my marriage. You have brought us together, may nothing tear us apart. May my husband (wife) and children know that where they go – both physically, emotionally, or spiritually, I am right there with them. Nothing they can do will stop me from loving them.
Help me to love more like You love, Father. Help us to love each other with an unconditional love. May my children be secure in my love for my husband (wife), his (her) love for me, and our love for them. Strengthen the love you have given my husband (wife) and me.
Help us to be proactive and intentional about spending time together and putting our marriage first. Teach us to love like You do. Heal what is broken in us.
