Our Father in heaven, Your name be honored as holy. Father, may my boys come to know You as their Savior. May they learn to honor Your name and understand that You alone are holy.
Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Father, I beg that Your return would be soon, but until that day I ask that Your will be carried out in the lives of my boys. No matter what that entails, no matter where that takes them, and no matter if it makes any sense to me at all, may Your will be done.
Give us today our daily bread. Thank You for each and every provision that You make in our lives. Help my children to understand that not one thing comes to us that doesn't pass through Your Providential hands. Even the very breath that gives us continued life comes from You. May we always be grateful.
And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. Thank You for the cancellation of our debts through the atoning death of Your Son. May my sons come to know the depth of that sacrifice that was given for them. May they also become men that know how to forgive and extend grace and love to those in their path.
And do not bring us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. I know that evil abounds in this world, but I ask Your protection over my boys. May they come to know that though the thief comes to steal and destroy and that darkness is prevalent, You are more powerful than all the forces of evil.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Father, I thank You and praise You for all that You are. May our family always bow before the great I AM. May we continually look forward to the day when we will be in Your very presence. It is in Your holy name that I pray, Amen. |
