Praying God's Word for Your Husband FREE Prayer cards {Hive Resources}

No. 10

Praying God’s Word for your husband (printable prayer cards)

Kathi Lipp’s book, Praying God’s Word for Your Husband, was one of my favorite books of 2013. It helped me focus my prayers for my husband and helped me assess any selfish motives driving my prayers for him. It was a quick read and would even make a great gift for a friend or family member.

Thank you to all my Hive Resources readers! Because of you, 2013 was a great year! Looking forward to 2014 and what God has in store! I hope you’ll join me!
