31 Days of Prayer

For a while now I have felt that I need to do something about my prayer life. I pray every day - for friends and family, the members of my online prayer group, my dogs, etc., but it's not focused or conscious prayer. I pray while I am driving in the car, doing laundry, or cleaning the house. Not that there is anything wrong with that, prayer is prayer, but I personally feel that I need to do more. Or maybe it's God nudging me to do more. Whatever it is, I have this feeling that I need to be on my knees, crying out to God. Sometimes I can see myself doing so, but then I don't actually go do it.

I also just started following Leigh Ann over at Intentional by Grace and watched the video about the "Surrendered Marriage" series they are doing. In it she mentioned the book "31 Days to Build a Better Spouse" and since I want to be more intentional about my prayers for DH as well, I went ahead and purchased it.

Some of you might think this book is about changing my husband into the person *I* think he should be, but that's not what it's about at all. Actually, from what I have seen so far just reading the first page (day 1) and skimming through it, the book is about knowing and praying *God's* will for your spouse.
