Let my children meet the needs of others. Give them abundant resources of all kinds so they can soothe a grieving world. Allow them to bring glory to You through their generous hearts. 2Co 9:11

Of course my children will sin, that is not the point. May they freely admit their sin so they will be forgiven and continuously cleansed from all unrighteousness. 1John 1:9

When my children feel trapped and alone along the path You set before them, tell them to fear not and stand firm, confident and undismayed. You promised to fight for them so they will not lose their peace as they rest in the comfort of Your embrace… like a small child in his father’s arms. Exodus…

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

My children will not become dependent on earthly vices. They will see me live by every word and expression of God and know You are the path to a satisfactory life… not donuts or Red Bull.  Lk 4:4

Let my life be a reminder to my children that we must obey the commands of God revealed to us through scripture. Many things are kept secret and for those we aren’t responsible… but where scripture is clear… there are no ‘ifs’ or ‘buts’ nor exceptions. Dt 29:29
