Oh I couldn’t agree more, Karen! This is why I continue to pray in a Moms in Prayer group, now for over 22 years. The Word says it does not return void…good news for a mom who prays for their kids to walk in the ways of the Lord. He will do it!
Your site looks beautiful and fresh…I just love it!
Thank you for this post, Karen. Our children’s choices and decisions are theirs and sometimes they bring us heartaches but they are human. We need to bring them before the Lord and every day.
Amen! I continually pray for my son. :)

Blessings!

Thank you. I am one of those parents who needed to hear this today. I have good kids, but I want godly kids. Perfect timing as they are in times of transition right now.
My heart is heavy with this very issue as of late, with my youngest about to graduate college and the oldest with her third baby on it’s way. I just need to know beyond all doubt that they choose Jesus every day.
