Confession time: I’ve never been very good at praying consistantly for my kids. I’ve tried different methods for incorporating specific prayer time into my day, but nothing has ever stuck for more than a few months. 2013 will be different. This is my year of intention, and I’m determined to do better. One look at my Pinterest boards and I found just the thing:
I used this chart of “31 Biblical Virtues to Pray for your Children” to pick verses for each of my children. Instead of four different squares like above, I decided to make one bookmark to keep in my Bible. It was hard, but I let go of my Type-A “must have pretty paper” craziness and just went with cardstock we had handy. A little embellishment and now I have a tangible reminder to pray for these precious kids of mine.
