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. Yes, when they get serious about finding You and want it more than anything else, You’ll make sure they won’t be disappointed… You will turn things around for them.

Do not let my children become discouraged by their past mistakes. It’s over! Your word says that you heal the brokenhearted and bind up their wounds. Open my children’s hearts so your Spirit may pour into them and get to work. Ps 147:3
Work in my children; give them the desire to obey You and the power to do what pleases You. Philippians 2:13
