No one can pray for your child better than you can.
You see your child on their best days--and also on their worst. You know
how they're wired and what makes them unique. Your love for them knows
no bounds. Yet expressing the feelings in your heart and in your mind
can be challenging.
Songwriter and Dove Award winner Tony Wood has crafted prayers for many
of the desires we have for our children. In Lord, Help Me Pray for My
Kids, Tony has collected a prayer for each day of the year. Focusing on
a fresh topic each day, he covers such topics as these:
- Safety: Will You keep them so close in Your care that no plan formed
to hurt them will ever prosper?
- Friends: May there always be someone in every season of their lives
who is a trusted and trustworthy confidant.
- Siblings: I pray that You will guide them to choose peace, love, and
belief in one another.
- Anger: May they never allow their anger to go unchecked or
unacknowledged.
- Forgiveness: May they first bless their offenders by forgiving them
and then bless them by praying for their spiritual condition.
- Missions: Would You give my children a spirit that sees their
schools, sports teams, and circles of friends as potential mission
fields?

you express the desires of your heart for your kids to a listening
heavenly Father.
