Please pray that God transforms the communication between me and Alex. Help us truly hear and understand each other instead of becoming defensive, distant, frustrated, or hurt. Give us patience, honesty, empathy, understanding, and the ability to talk through difficult things with love and respect. Help Alex understand my feelings and help me understand his. Please heal the communication problems that have caused pain in our relationship and teach us to communicate like a strong, loving, united husband and wife who are building a healthy family together.
