Show my children the importance of accepting other Christians, even when they don’t agree with them. Help them see that each person is responsible to the Lord and by His power He will help them do as they should. For You, God, have accepted them! Ro 14:1,4

As my children live in obedience, they will receive the blessings God prepares for them in a timely manner … it is when they stray from their intended path that delays most likely occur! 1Samuel 9

Help my children carry the burden of someone else today, taking time to listen to a hurting friend, showing kindness to the lonely, or encouraging the downtrodden with their patience. Galatians 6:2

When my children fall into bed after a long productive day I will rejoice rather than pity them for having to work so hard … for the sleep of a laboring man is sweet … and the ability to enjoy the fruit of labor is a gift from God. Ecclesiastes 5:12,19

As my children mature, give them the right amount of Your wisdom at just the right time. May they steadily grow in Your Word so they don’t become overwhelmed and stumble. Your promises are great… but we must each learn the doors we must walk through in order to receive them. Ps 112:1

Please don’t let my children become a victim to the prowling enemy. They will take a firm stand against this roaring lion and remain strong in their faith. I will humble myself under the might power of God and they will follow me. 1Pe 5:6-7
