Is there an exhaustive prayer list of things that we should ask of God for our children?
When Pineapple was in utero, I just had one prayer. A healthy baby. He answered that one.
With Mango on the way, my daily list is up to at least five items. Every day I would like to add more, but I don't because... ... ... would the list ever end? Could I ever stop asking God for blessings for my children? Of course not. But I think you could probably come up with "The Top 5." Here are mine.
1. Saved
2. A Saved Spouse
3. Healthy4. Good Choices
5. A Contributing Member of Society
Strangely, I have recently added "Loves their siblings." Inexplicably, it just suddenly occurred to me one day. It must have something to do with lots of conflict with my brother as a youth, and a great relationship with him now.
The list goes on.
What are your top 5?
