Build strong character in my children by teaching them the importance of self discipline. Their greatest victories will be their internal ones. They will set their standards high by following the example of the spiritual strength and character needed to accomplish great things for You. Pr 16:32, Mt 16:24

Of course my children will fall, that is the nature of humanity! I pray they don’t view the fall as the end… but the beginning. Thank You for extending Your hand down to them… I pray they take it, rise in Your strength and finish the course You have set before them! Pr 25:16  

When my children throw a pity-party for themselves, help them stop! Open their eyes to the immediate needs of others around them and let them find ways to help, prayers to pray, and above all… offer unconditional love. Ps 25:16

Keep my children away from complaining and arguing. Help them live clean, innocent lives as children of God in a dark world full of crooked and perverse people. Php 2:14-15

Teach my children to pray for all people, to make their requests, plead for God’s mercy upon them, and give thanks. 1Timothy 2:1

When my children choose to live by Your Spirit, give them a harvest of blessing at the appropriate time so they don’t get discouraged and give up. Show them opportunities to do good so they may please You. Galatians 6:8-10
