What Verses Do You Pray Over Your Children?

Well, I am back and have so much to share that has been on my heart. I miss the blogging community and the amazing people it brought into my life for so many years. So, I am back. Sometimes the hardest part of the journey is just getting started... so here we go! 

Mamas are there specific verses you pray over your children? Boy mamas these two verses I have been praying over my boys. I would love to hear some scripture you are praying over your children!

May our sons be strong and courageous.
“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

~Joshua 1:9

May our sons do justice, love kindness and walk humbly with God.
“He has told you, O man, what is good;
and what does the Lord require of you
but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?”

~Micah 6:8

A Letter.

He still runs at me with his arms out,

he still wants to be held when he's sick. 

He still will whisper in my ear and say, "Mom, I love you."

He takes a break from whatever he’s doing
and he says hey 
mom mom
over and over while he sprints
from across the room... To me.

He is starting to get to 'cool' to dance when other people are around
But for me he never turns a dance party down. He smiles. He dances.


Today was a first.
The first time he asked me to help him write a letter.
I didn't ask questions, I simple said okay. 
He sat. He asked questions how to spell. He thought of all the words to write.


I helped only when needed. 
Today he wrote a letter to a sweet 'girl' friend who
He has adored since birth. 
We celebrated her today at a Skating Party.

he thinks.

 he writes.

I wonder how many more times he will ask me to sit
as he writes?
As he writes today, I pray. 
I pray for his future Bride. The one that's made just for him.


That he will love her, lead her and show her grace every day. 
That he will always open the door for her and hold her hand.
That he will pray with her and protect her.


I know, It sounds crazy but I have prayed for my boys brides
since the day I held them in my arms. 
I believe 100% there is power in a momma's prayer.
So I will not stop. Ever. 
There is no greater gift I could give them than Jesus.


Do you ever pray for your kids future spouses?
