I think that we neglect one of the most powerful passages on prayer in the Bible when we don't teach our children the Lord's Prayer!! I think in most modern churches today this prayer is overlooked. However, when Jesus wanted to teach the disciples to pray, He used this very prayer!! I think that says a lot and is a great example for how we should be teaching our children to pray! The Lord's Prayer is a great scripture to memorize with your kids - and then, don't just memorize it, PRAY IT ... Read More about Day 14: Praying the Lord’s Prayer with our kids
Day 13: Teaching Kids to Pray
In addition to praying with my children, I am praying that God would help me to instill in them the importance of prayer. I want them to be 3 little prayer warriors.

Let him not become conceited, provoking and envying each other. Amen. From Galatians 5:22-26 ... Read More about Day 11: Praying the Fruit of the Spirit
Day 10: Praying for Hearts of Graditude
Last Monday I combined my 31 days series with my weekly Gift List of counting my blessings...today I want to do the same, but a little differently. :) Today I want to pray prayers of blessing and gratitude for my children's hearts...that God would grow in them a heart of gratitude and contentment. "May my child learn to be content whatever the circumstances. Knowing what it is to be in need, and knowing what it is to have plenty. May my child learn the secret of being content ...
