Prayer for a dear wife

 My dear grandmother is in the hospital currently healing from surgery for a lesion in her brain. Dad has told me that the results aren't exactly as they'd hoped. I was planning on flying out there to be a comforter for my dad but he said to wait since it wasn't the best timing for gram. Mark and I have been praying a lot for her and my family.
 My grandparents relationship has always inspired me to be forever "young" and in love. They counseled us last summer before getting married and I was so happy to be around those lovebirds and glean every bit of magic so one day I could have a marriage like theirs. I loved to watch them play cards and I especially loved to hear their conversations, the agreements as well as the disagreements. I would laugh countless times because my grandpa always has such witty remarks that win everyones affection, including grandma's which was apparent to me because of the way she would laugh. Last night as I lay down to go to sleep next to my husband, I could not help but think of my grandpa. I admire him for what a great husband he is to her and I pray that God would surround him with family and love during this time and for whatever time is to come. I'm so grateful for my grandmother and I pray that God be with my family no matter what the outcome is after this surgery.
These scriptures below remind me of what a treasure my grandmother is.


 "Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favor of the Lord." Proverbs 18:22
      
Proverbs 19:14 "Houses and wealth are inherited from parents, 
       but a prudent wife is from the Lord."


       Proverbs 31:10-12


"A wife of noble character who can find?
       She is worth far more than rubies.
  Her husband has full confidence in her
       and lacks nothing of value.
 She brings him good, not harm,
       all the days of her life.
