Help my children see that constantly seeking council from friends is a sign they aren’t hearing and understanding Your voice. Gently correct their sins so that their hearts will be pure and they can receive Your words. Mt 5:8

Keep my children from believing the lie that the thing they d sire most will bring them the happiness they so desperately crave (be it a relationship, their health, a certain possession, financial security, etc.) Teach my children that true happiness comes when they trust You for what they need, knowing if it’s right You’ll…
Give my children the heart to protect Your creation. They have dominion over the works of Your hands and all things have been put under their feet. Make them aware of how precious and important they are in this world. Psalms 8:6
Make my children strong… may they NEVER opt for the easy way out and detach from people. Christ gave his life for people… and we were left here on this earth for the purpose of connecting! Matt 24:12, John 17:18
As my children mature, focus their energies on forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead. They are citizens of heaven, straining to reach the end of the race and make it back to You. Php 3:13, 20
Don’t let anyone lead my children astray with empty philoso- phy and high sounding nonsense that comes from human thinking and from the evil powers of this world … and not from Christ. Colossians 2:8
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…
