Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her,
(Ephesians 5:25)
Pray
You are the ultimate example of love and sacrifice, as this verse reminds us that Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her. I come before You humbly, acknowledging my own shortcomings and asking for Your forgiveness and guidance. Help me to understand and embody the selfless, sacrificial love that Christ demonstrated for the church. Show me how to love others in this way, putting their needs above my own and serving them with a willing heart.
I pray for the strength to love my family, friends, and even strangers with the same love that Christ has shown to me. Help me to be patient, kind, and compassionate in all my interactions, and to always seek the well-being and happiness of others. May my love be a reflection of Your love for us, and may it bring glory to Your name. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
