30 Days to Being a Purposeful Mommy, Day 11

Day 11: Pray, Pray, and Pray Some More!

And I´m not just talking about. ¨Lord, help me find the keys so I can drive these children to the park before I go insane!¨

We moms have a responsability to be prayer warriors on behalf of our children. And our husbands. So put those kiddos to bed and hit your knees! You have a lot to talk to God about, so just get started.

Here are a few things you can pray for, and I would refer you to this book, and this one, which are fantastic resources for learning how to build up your prayer life. (And no, I do not own stock in this author or anything like that.)

1. Pray for health, spiritual, physical, emotional, etc for each of your children, and your husband.

2. Pray for yourself as a mother, that you would be a good example, that you would be wise, and that you would be able to instruct your children in life, especially in the faith.

3. Pray for your children´s relationships with each other, that they would be friends and have no need to feel jealousy or inadequacy.

4. Pray for your children´s friends, that they would choose quality friends who will influence them to do good and not evil.

5. Pray for your husband, that he would be wise and lead your family in the way it should go.

6. Pray for the future, both the future of your family and your marriage and each of your children´s futures, such as future schooling, jobs, families and marriages.

And there are so many more things you can pray for! And should pray for. So get going, momma!
