Father, I know You hate divorce (Malachi 2:16). I know that fornication is not a reason You will accept for divorce, but a reason that a divorce is not caused by adultery (Matthew 5:32). I know that You approve separation of man and wife for a temporary time under the right conditions (though I forget the passage for that at the present), but that You expect them to come together again, whether it is after closing a fast, or working out marital problems. I would pray that Your power can be utilized, and that people would submit their wills to You in order to sustain their marriages, which are to glorify You and Christ's bond to the church, not just for the happiness of the people involved. May we learn to do things Your way, and not ours or the world's. Amen.
