A Prayer For Becoming A Future Wife
Jamie Jones

Dear Lord,

I know that you have my future husband picked out for me. I know you know what he looks like, his personality, the way he acts, the way he talks, the way he walks, his flaws, his mistakes, and his heart. I know that you have saved him just for me and that makes him so special. I pray that you mold me into the kind of Christian woman that I need to be for Him.

I pray that you help me be the type of wife that my husband needs in his life. I know I am not perfect, but I pray you turn my emotional, rude habits, into kind, loving, patient, gentle and self-controlled traits. I know that I won't be able to be this type of wife without your help Lord. I know that only you are able to transform me. I ask that you give me a tender heart and continue to strengthen me and doesn't give way to fear. Give me a heart filled with love, compassion, and grace and not one filled with wrongdoings. Help me be able to love him just like you love us.

I pray that you give me the characteristics of a loving a supporting wife. I pray that you give me the right attitude to have no matter the situation we are in. Help me recognize all of his efforts, strengths and courageous acts. I pray that I am able support him in all of his decisions he makes. I pray that I am able to have a servant heart and walk by him in our journey of faith. I pray that I am able to continue to encourage him on his goals. I pray that I become his biggest cheerleader as I watch you work his talents in his life. Remind me to turn my focus away from his faults and flaws, and turn me towards his wonderful achievements.

I pray that we are able to go to battle and have victories together. I pray that we are able to walk with whatever battle comes our way. I pray that we are able to remember to keep you in the center our relationship and trust you with our lives. I pray that you give me the wisdom and understanding to bear through this. Equip us with the armor we need in order to go into battle. I want to be ready to fight this with him by my side.

I pray that you are able to prepare me with whatever path you set my husband and I on. No matter what he is, a soldier, firefighter, farmer, doctor, teacher, missionary I pray that I am able to help meet him where ever he is meant to go.

I pray that I am able to become his best friend. I want to become his enduring wife. I want us to be able to grow old together. I want us to always walk together in life and always have each other by our sides. I pray that our love for each other will never die. I want the days we spend together to feel like Heaven on earth.

I pray that you are able to form me into a Proverbs 31 woman. I pray that I am able to help take care of my family physically and financially. Help me always realize that after a hard day of work I am able to come home and realize how blessed I am for the wonderful family you have given me. Help me able to do all the things that a loving wife and mother should be able to do. Help me be a good cook, cleaner, provider, supporter, and teacher.

Lord, please come into my heart and help prepare me to be the woman my husband needs to be. I am ready to be a working servant in your hands Lord. I want to become a wife of the word, not a wife of the world.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
