A Prayer For My Grandchildren

Nothing in life gives more joy than grandchildren.  Within the last eight weeks, Steve and I have been blessed with two precious grandchildren.  Yes, two!  Landon was our first and Leah followed quickly behind.  Today I found this prayer and I offer it to grandparents everywhere.  Thank you to the author, Barbie Kirk.

 

Lord, protect my grandchildren

each and every day

Protect them along life’s

fragile way.

Keep them from hatred

malice and strife

Bless them with understanding

and wisdom during life.

Lord, and give them knowledge

as they grow

And above all, please save

their soul!

Lord, richly bless them in

all they say and do

And help them to see the

love in you.

And as they get older

then they will see

That a prayer from their

grandparent has been

answered by thee.
