Praying Scripture

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path. Psalm 119:105

As moms we bring to God our fears and concerns for our children. Scripture reminds us over and over that he will guide US - the one praying and seeking his will.

So often we want to see changes in our children or the school system. When we bathe our children in scripture we ask that our child "may" do God's will. Let us not forget that we are the one's seeking God's will.

Here's a challenge for all of us. During the confession time, look down at the scripture you will be praying for your child. Are you following the path of the scripture you will be praying for your child?

All Scripture is inspired by God
and is useful to teach us what is true
and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives.
It straightens us out and teaches us to do what is right.
2 Timothy 3:16 (NLV)
