Pray for your future wife
The council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood has recently done an interview Andrew Case about his new book “Water of the Word”. It encourages men to pray for their future wife:
Perseverance on the narrow road is a miracle of grace. I don’t want “the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches and the desires for other things” to enter in and choke the Word in my wife before or after I meet her (Mark 4:19). God must keep her in the love of Christ (Jude 1:1), and I am confident that He uses prayer as a means to that end. I am keenly aware of the propensity within my own heart that Robert Robinson described in song: “Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it-prone to leave the God I love.” Why not pray for her, as I pray for myself, that He would bind her wandering heart to Himself?
I want to read this book :). It is a great reminder to have prayer in my life and not just prayers for myself, but also for my future wife.
