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  

We are created to believe the best in every person. My children do, but they forget the most important part … ALL the time! Especially when someone is annoying them, may my children STOP and focus on the positive attributes … I am not that bad!!! 1 Cor 13:7

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. Pr 21:13

Send a mentor into each of my children’s lives, someone who will learn their strengths and encourage them to grow in the direction of Your Son! Thank you for letting me shepherd my flock… and thank you for sending help! Php 3:17

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. James 1:12

Let me experience much joy and comfort from my children’s love, specifically their love for others. This kindness so often refreshes the hearts of God’s people. They worship You in serving others and behave as true disciples of Christ.  Philemon 1:7
