It is only our faith and trust in God that makes us truly successful on earth. My children will remain strong in the Lord for the short time they are here and NOT become enamored by the ways of the world. Jos 23:13

You planted my children in the garden of their lives. Show them their role in tending that garden… that everything they need is there, but they must work it and take care of it to produce fruit. You give my children all the resources, but they must do their part! Ge 2:8, 2:15

Keep my children in front of Your mirror, set their gaze on You. As they begin to see their reflection through Your eyes they will see the actions they need to take in order to come in line with who You want them to become. Remind them as often as needed to feel no shame…

Let the way my children live honor and please You Lord so they will continually do good, kind things for others. All the while, they will learn to know You better and better. Col 1:10  

Let my children see that FEAR is a tool of the enemy! May they make a conscious effort to eliminate ungodly fear from their lives. They natural outcome of fear is a propensity to sin… and when that happens… they enemy gets another point! Ne 6:13

Don’t let any unwholesome talk come out of my mouth, but only what is helpful for building others up. My children will know my criticism is for their benefit and not feel the sting but only the comfort of my hand leading them in the way of God. Ephesians 4:29
