Don’t let my children close their eyes to Your goodness because of any hurt they are nursing. Help them hold on to what is good and keep them away from every kind of evil.  1 Thessalonians 5:16-22 

I pray that my children leave their comfort zone today and share Your name when the time arises… they will know… let their ears be open to Your voice and their hearts be full of Your love so that Your goodness will naturally flow out of them to bless others. Mt 9:38

You know what You are doing. You have it all planned out. Plans to take care of my children, not abandon them. Plans to give them the future they hope for. When they call on You, when they come and pray to You, You will listen. When they come looking for You, You’ll find them….

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. 1Sa 17:37

Teach my children to feel good, invincible, happy, and free. Show them that the short lived relief from pain that comes from sin will NEVER compare to the eternal power of the Holy Spirit available to them every second of every day. Reveal to me the areas of my life that I have become dependent…

Somehow show my children (in a way that makes sense to them) that their job as Your child is to trust You … to be happy today even if they are in pain … For You have deprived it of power to harm them and have conquered it for them! John 16:33
