Transform my children by renewing their minds. Please find a way to bring the Word into their lives today, giving them a desire to know how You want them to live. Obedience to your Word is the best way for all of us to find what we are looking for… but the enemy is working…

Help my children see that they were given the affection of compassion so that they can protect lives by helping one another. We were created by one God, descended from one man, connected by the law of kinship and should love everyone. Gal 6:2, Lactantius

Being filled with pride comes naturally. Give my children more heroes like David Robinson who gives all glory to You! It is only when my children finally admit their victories are simply reflections of Your glory that they are supplied with the supernatural strength of a humble spirit. Humility is not a sign of weakness…
