Two become one – again!

I see my husband face to face for the first time in 7 months in less than 5 hours. It's easy to rejoice this morning!!
I'm emotional, excited, grateful. Reading Psalm 118 – "His loving kindness is everlasting." Amen!!! I have sought, felt and depended on the mercy of God these past months like never before. "This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it." True every day, but TODAY I feel it!!! Rejoicing pours out of me.
As a I read the psalm I find myself pausing to pray different verses for myself, my family, my friends. It strikes me that I pray differently than when my husband left. Both of us have learned again to turn to God first instead of each other. This was out of necessity (several thousand miles between us requiring a different relationship), but for the first time I consider that our prayer life together might change. Frankly, a change could only be good! Historically, we have struggled in this area, praying sporadically or in general, rarely coming before the throne together and really seeking the Lord.
But we are both different now. I knew we would be, and I've been apprehensive about the changes and the readjustment. But if we continue in pray together as we have prayed apart our marriage and family will be profoundly impacted for the better.
I was excited before. I'm even more excited now! "The Lord is God, and He has given us light." Hallelujah!!
