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….

Lord, help my children run with exuberance. Give them endurance by stripping off every weight that slows them down. Teach them to keep their eye on Jesus and that they are His joy. Heb 12:1-2

Guide my children along right paths. Dr. Martin Luther King said, “Cowardice asks: Is it safe? Consensus asks: Is it popular Character asks: Is it right?” Help my children do the right thing, especially when it costs them, when the wrong this is more ex- pedient, or when no one is looking. Psalms 23:3

I pray my children NEVER ignore the poor … for he who shuts his ear to the cry of the poor will also cry himself and not be answered. Proverbs 21:13 

Give my children a new heart and put a new spirit into them. May their hearts be soft and able to feel the exquisite pain of the piercing of your arrows… so that their hearts are no longer hardened against the piercing of your word and the teachings of our Master. Ez 36:26

May my children have good success in all of their endeavors, producing the desired results … and maintaining a heart filled with joy regardless of circumstance. For a life lived well is a great testament to the promises of Your Love. Teach my children to verbally give all credit to You alone … for when…
