Child/Parenting Prayers

My Children

Thank You for each of my children. I pray that You would give them a desire to protect the bond of unity among themselves. Help them be devoted to each other in brotherly love and honor one another above themselves.

Togetherness

Inspire my children to work together for the good of the other, living and growing in harmony each day.

Help them be compassionate and humble in the way they do life together.

When squabbles arise, spur them toward reconciliation so the friction may be dissolved quickly and in ways that benefit both parties.

Help them be self-controlled and wise in their words and actions toward each other.

Where there is unity You bestow blessings and life. I pray this would be so for my children's relationships throughout their whole lives.

Teach My Children

Teach my children how to be patient and kind to each other.

Do not let envy or pride take root in their hearts. Keep them from dealing rudely or angrily with each other.

Help them forgive wholly and completely not letting grudges or bitterness sour their hearts against each other.

Help my children protect their family ties, trust each other, hope for the best for each other, and persevere in building each other together in love and truth.
