I pray my children NEVER ignore the poor … for he who shuts his ear to the cry of the poor will also cry himself and not be answered. Proverbs 21:13

Lord, give my children the wisdom to find common ground with those You place in their lives. Fill them with passion for You so they may be a light to this world. Let them receive the joy that comes with Your blessings. 1Corinthians 9:22-23

Fill my children with joy. Teach them to know that true joy comes from thankfulness and displaying gratitude through their actions. Thank you for rescuing them from the kingdom of darkness and placing them in the Kingdom of you Son! Col 1:11-13  

My children will merrily traverse the path You have laid before them and never give up, even during trials. You will send wise travel companions to accompany them when needed, equip them with everything they need to persevere, and send encouraging supporters when they must walk alone. They are blessed. Jas 1:12

Oftentimes my children forget that God’s children aren’t just the people that seem nice or other Christians or the people that seem safe … but ALL the precious people God created. Let my children find ways to express Your love to the world around them … for You reside in every person walking the planet…
