"1 My son, keep my words and store up my commands within you. 2 Keep my commands and you will live; guard my teachings as the apple of your eye. 3 Bind them on your fingers; write them on the tablet of your heart." Proverbs 7:1-3
Dear Heavenly Father, Thank you for your Word. Create a deep desire for it and a longing to cherish it above all the glitter of this world, for your love is better than life and your Word is Light and Love. Please help us as parents, cherish you personally above all other loves in this life and be a living example of holiness to our kids. Help us to authentically live out our faith in every arena of our lives, and to genuinely love others generously like Jesus. Teach us, that we may teach our children your ways and your Word and how beautiful it is. Help us hide it away in our hearts that we might not sin against you. Keep our children from the solicitations of their own sin, the world, and the devil. Give them a grace covering that makes them have a bitter taste for the things of this life that pull their hearts away from you and lead them into sin and debauchery. Fill their minds and hearts with thoughts of You and your Word and make them to see your beauty and the pleasures at your right hand that are not short lived or stained in any way, but are eternal and holy and good and true. Help them to listen and obey instruction in the Lord. Help them turn their desires to your heart Lord. Lead them in the path of righteousness for your name's sake. Cover us with your wings and fill us with your Spirit that we may make your name great and exult you among the world. Thank you, Lord, for everything. Hallelujah! Praise your name. In Jesus' name, amen.
