What Changes do I Desire?
“The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD, Like the rivers of water; He turns it wherever He wishes.” – Proverbs 21:1
Every woman wants a man who will treat her like a queen, spoil her silly with gifts and shower her with romantic compliments.
She wants a husband who understands her unspoken words, helps with chores, and is involved in the lives of their children.
But what if the husband is lazy, brash, has no time for the kids and the things of God.
What if her husband is a bad parent and poor role model to their children?
What if her husband has anger and communication issues?
While some of this may be because of poor upbringing, pressure and frustration can also lead a spouse to act badly.
Character flaws and negative behavior/attitude in a spouse can make the other partner feel frustrated in the marriage. And the truth is that you can’t change a man, only God can work in the heart of a man and change him completely.
So, what are those changes you desire to see in your spouse? Start by praying diligently for your spouse and marriage. Instead of complaining about his flaws and weaknesses, commit to praying him into the man that you desire him to be.
Do you want a spiritually minded husband? Do you want a caring husband and father? Do you want a supportive spouse?
Get to work today, start praying and let the Holy Spirit work on his heart and mind.
