Prayer for my Children Loving Father, Please guide my children to always do Your will, allow them to see what is really important, and remind them how much I love them. Send good and wholesome friends into their lives, keep them safe, bless them with good health, and give them the courage to do the right thing when difficult or tempting choices cross their path. Make my children strong in character, rich in sympathy, and generous in spirit. Bless them with a gentle nature and a kind heart. Let them become children committed to the Gospel of Your Son Jesus. Grant them a lasting faith, and lead them to a profound love for You, their family and themselves. Amen.
