May my children witness my joy and know the source by the way I live. I pray they find their way to my well and grow dependent on Your Living Water! The world entices with flashy and instant gratification, show my children there is a better way. Use me! Jn 10:10, Jn 7:37-38

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!   Romans 14:1,4

My children always have the last word. May they learn to speak encouragement over themselves, tune out the naysayers, and even their own self doubt will begin to disappear… replaced with a winning spirit! Isa 65:16

Let my children experience sorrow and deep grief for the wrong things they have done. They will come to you and ask forgiveness, therefore entering your kingdom by humbling themselves. Evil isn’t present in your kingdom… may their hearts reside there while still on earth so they may experience your peace, the peace that passes…

Let my children rejoice in triumph of their everyday battles and not become weary … it is a sign that God is preparing them for greater battles that will not only result in rich blessing for their own lives but eventually advance the Kingdom of Heaven. 1Samuel 17:37

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. Psalm 112:1
