You are my portion, O Lord; I have said that I would keep Your Words. I entreated Your favor with my whole heart; be merciful to me according to Your Word.
Let my truthful lips be established forever and do not let my tongue lie. As my life and my hope are rooted in You, let it yield fruit that is pleasing to You and helpful to those around me. Let not my root be moved.
Help me to be an excellent wife who is a crown to my husband, not causing him shame or preying upon him. Let my thoughts be right and just, and based on Your Word. Lord, Pr. 12:7 says, “The house of the righteous will stand.” Thank You, Lord. I am standing on Your promise in that verse.
Help my words to be good, bringing gladness to my husband’s heart and to the hearts of my children, as well. Help my children to wisely receive my counsel as I teach and train them in Your ways, so that no grave trouble will overtake them. Help my tongue to promote health in our relationships, and give us joy.
Lord, help us to choose our friends carefully so that we are not led away from You. Help us to be diligent in all we do, honoring You.
Thank You for Your faithfulness and Your favor. Thank You for Your mercies and for Your salvation. You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power; for You created all things, and by Your will they exist and were created!
I love You, Lord, and I trust in You. I pray this in Jesus’ holy name. Amen.
