I often forget that my husband has emotions too. He is so logical sometimes that he seems like a robot. Negative emotions can have such a powerful effect in a marriage and it is so important to not only recognize them when they occur, but to commit to root them out of our minds and hearts.
Heavenly Father I ask that you would help my husband not to have negative emotions. I pray that he would recognize them as such when they occur. I do pray that he would never be controlled by anger, depression, anxiety, jealousy, fear, hopelessness or inadequacy. Help me not to be pulled down by any negative emotions. Let me not get angry when Amos is angry. Help me to remember to pray in all things. Help me to understand my husband and give me words to speak to him that will encourage him to seek You in all things. I pray that he would always remember You and Your faithfulness regardless of circumstances. I pray that he would always know that he can share his deepest feelings with me. Surround him with godly men that he can open up with and be held accountable to also. Give him patience and self control. Fill him with joy. Help him to always trust in You and walk wisely. Restore his soul and lead him in the paths of righteousness for Your sake. Help him to always trust you and stand on Your firm word of truth. May he always put Your truth before his emotions.
