(As a reminder, here is the song, “Wednesday’s Prayer” from which the lines in the prayer are taken)

“Guide their feet, Lord, light their path…”

Dear Father,

There are many choices our children face each day and all of them are potentially life changing.  We ask You, Lord to guide them in each decision they make. Help them to seek Your will and to follow it.

We pray that our children will learn what it means to fully trust in You, and to not lean on their own understanding.  Our hearts’ cry is they will acknowledge You, O Lord, and You will make their paths straight. (Proverbs 3:5, 6)

We find comfort in knowing Your Word will illuminate their path and show them the right way to go. As their parents, we recommit to the working of Your Holy Spirit in our lives. We long to be a godly example for our children so that as they watch us they will be inspired to follow You more closely.

In Christ’s name we pray,

Amen

“Who among you fears the Lord and obeys the word of his servant?  Let him who walks in the dark, who has no light, trust in the name of the Lord and rely on his God.”   Isaiah 50:10

“I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you.” Psalm 32:8
