My Prayer

As a mom, there are many dreams that I have for my children. As a mom, I also know that there is little I can control over these dreams, since they are my dreams and not theirs. I do have prayers for my children. One is Proverbs 4:20-27 (NLT)

My child, pay attention to what I say. Listen carefully to my words. Don't lose sight of them. Let them penetrate deep into your heart, for they bring life to those who find them, and healing to their whole body. Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life. Avoid all perverse talk; stay away from corrupt speech. Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you. Mark out a straight path for your feet; stay on the safe path. Don't get sidetracked; keep your feet from following evil.

What are your prayers for your children?
