Prayer for Military Wives
Lord,
The military speaks in terms of courage, honor, devotion to duty, sacrifice, and commitment – all of which are qualities of the military wife.
We thank you for wives who run households for months on end while their husbands are deployed.
In fact, Lord, they usually things run more smoothly.
Give these wives strength to deal with pregnancy, childbirth, colic, potty training, the first day of school, teenagers, bills, broken-down cars, burst pipes, lonely nights, and mothers-in-law.
Grant them the patience of Mother Teresa,
The superpowers of the Bionic Woman, and the financial
Wizardry of Suze Orman so they can stretch the military pay.
In short, Lord, let us recognize that the job of a military wife would wear down even Wonder Woman!
We pray that their sacrifice and support are given more praise than the career accomplishments of their husbands.
There are no words greater than “Thank you” and I love you.”
May we use these often with the wives of soldiers, sailors, marines, airmen, and Coasties whether we are at home or deployed around the world.
Love can build a bridge between our hearts. Let us see to that!
Bless all those military wives who serve and sacrifice to support their families and our great nation.
Amen
Love Can Build A bridge Between Your Heart And Mine.
