Lord, my wife is worn down by stress — the mental list that never empties, the sense that holding everything together rests on her shoulders alone. Your word promises Your presence going with us, and the rest that comes with it; go with my wife into her overloaded days and give her genuine rest, not just a pause before the next demand. Open my eyes to how much she actually carries, the invisible load I too easily overlook. Show me what to pick up without being asked — the chore, the errand, the decision she is tired of being the one to make. Make our home a place she can exhale in, not one more job. Guard her health and her sleep, where stress keeps stealing them. And help me tell her, often, that she is not alone in holding our life together. Go with my wife, Lord, and give her the rest she keeps pouring out on everyone else. Amen.
A prayer for you
