Day 8 - Praying for your Husband

Day 8
Pray that your husband will work hard to provide for your family, to the best of his ability. Pray
that the character qualities necessary for a successful career and ministry will be a growing part
of his character – persistence, decisiveness, strength, an analytical mind, organizational skills,
positive relationships with people, determination, etc. (Rom. 12:11; 1 Cor. 15:58)

As I'm praying this morning for Marc, he is at his teacher orientation meeting at Northpointe for his semester of student teaching. He got home & in bed shortly after 3am and was up at 6:30am to head to this meeting. He will come home, change and head back to work. :( I'm hoping his meeting ends a bit early so he can sneak in a nap.

Marc is certainly a hard worker. He started going back to school about 4 months after we got married and has been going to school AND working full time for almost 5 years straight. And honestly in those 5 years, I have probably heard him complain about it maybe 5 times. He is so determined and ambitious and I truly admire his work ethic. To top it off, he still finds time to help me with things around the house.

Both of us have obviously had to make sacrifices for him to be in school, but I truly believe for him to use his gifts and passions in his work are so important. It is worth the chaos of the last 5 years to have Marc in a career he is excited about.

4 more months, folks!
