God Made Moms To Teach Their Children…You Have A Bright Future

It seems that every week my children’s aspirations and career goals for their adult lives change. Just when I get use to the idea of being a parent of a future traveling veterinarian, he decides he wants to be a game show host. I have also heard from one that he is going to be a Nigerian soccer player and the President of the United States...imagine that. It is truly wonderful hearing their dreams, even though they may change by the day. Listening and questioning their plans allows me to spread my wings and dream with them. As a praying parent, it also triggers certain prayers for them. I pray over their minds and their hearts desires. I pray God’s full covering over them. I start by pleading the blood of Jesus over them and I encourage them by saying, “ You can do all thing through Christ who strengthens you” or by saying “ You have bright future ahead of you”. I never want to be the one standing in the way of their dreams. I want to be the one helping them to reach their dreams by doing my part as their parent.

Be blessed and encouraged today, it’s a choice. ~Delphine

Matthew 19:14 -- Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."
