I pray my children will turn to You often throughout their day in praise and thanksgiving for the many, many blessings You have given them … their warm beds, the refreshing warmth of the sun, the warmth of my smile, and all the little surprises waiting for them as they live today. Psalms 19:13

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……

Oftentimes my children forget that God’s children aren’t just the people that seem nice or other Christians or the people that seem safe … but ALL the precious people God created. Let my children find ways to express Your love to the world around them … for You reside in every person walking the planet…

There is no sweeter or more powerful word in the human language than the name of Jesus. May my children remember this fact when adversity comes and release the power of the living God with the utterance of a single word, Jesus. Acts 3:16; 4:10,30; John 20:31

Surround my children with people who celebrate and worship You. May they love and be kind to all people, especially those who don’t know You… Keep them from adopting the ways of those who do not trust You… so they do not fall victim to the enemy. Jos 23:14

Do not allow sin to control the way my children live. Teach them that living without restraint is like removing brakes from a car, while the ride will be exciting, it will end in disaster. Help them see that whatever they choose to obey will become their master, and then give themselves completely to You!…
