daily prayer

Good morning! How are we faithing? Late start for me and I apologise. Both kids here from abroad and we were up late! It is very interesting and encouraging to see our grown children become amazing adults. It pleases us parents to think that they in fact did listen to us and learn from the good and the bad. I listened to my children and found that they have insight and sound logic. I am pleased they still listen to old Dad but am more pleased they are their own person. God will use them as he sees fit and not as I do. This is hard sometimes to accept and to not try to keep dealing with them as kids. The Word has tons of teaching for families. Here's but a few;

1 Corinthians 14:20
Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.
KJV

Philippians 1:8-11
And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in real knowledge and all discernment, so that you may approve the things that are excellent, in order to be sincere and blameless until the day of Christ; having been filled with the fruit of righteousness which comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
NAS

1 Corinthians 13:11-12
When I was a child, I used to speak as a child, think as a child, reason as a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things.
NAS


Ephesians 4:14-16
As a result, we are no longer to be children, tossed here and there by waves, and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, by craftiness in deceitful scheming; but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him, who is the head, even Christ, from whom the whole body, being fitted and held together by that which every joint supplies, according to the proper working of each individual part, causes the growth of the body for the building up of itself in love.
NAS

Remember Anna Benton...remember Kathy Allen...remember Bob Quarles...remember those on the road...

Heavenly Father,
Thank you Lord for children of all ages. Thank you for the time we have with them. Lord we ask for healing in this time of upheaval in the world. Let our kids know you are there for them at all times. We lift those mentioned to you, heal them physically and let them know who healed them, in Jesus name, amen
