Build strong character in my children by teaching them the importance of self discipline. Their greatest victories will be their internal ones. They will set their standards high by following the example of the spiritual strength and character needed to accomplish great things for You. Pr 16:32, Mt 16:24

Please make Your presence know to my children so they may know and experience Your joy. Don’t let them depend on our world for happiness for if they do their only joy will come from reaction to circumstances … but You can plaster a smile on their faces that will puzzle even the deepest cynic…

God, please give my children complete understanding of what You want them to do in their lives, and I ask You to make them wise with spiritual wisdom. Colossians 1:9

Reveal to my children the secret to experiencing Your constant presence … God walks with and pours blessing upon those walking with Him, not the other way around! May my children learn to walk with God rather than begging Him to walk with them! 2 Corinthians 2:14, Psalms 84:

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

Everyone has problems. Help my children see theirs differently and know that a problem is a sign they have a promise! As they suffer temporary situations or the actions of others they will learn to trust that You are steadfast and Your plan is to bless them… that as they suffer trials… if they persevere……
