February is the month of Love. There is no love like the love of a parent for their children. As a mom, I can tell you - there is nothing that I would not do for my son... my love for him is limitless. I pray for him daily. But the other day, God called me out... He called it to my attention that I've failed to pray for my son's environment... his friends, his classmates, his teachers, his coaches, etc. Wow! How shortsighted have I been?

So... this month I am challenging myself to pray for Teens everywhere. I'm praying for everyone that they come in contact with. Will you join me? Will you commit to one month of praying daily for our Teens? Ready? Set? Pray!

Day 2

I am thankful for caring adults that You have placed in our teen's lives. Please Lord, I ask that you reveal that person to each child who needs someone today.

I pray that every teen will have at least one person praise them for a good deed. I pray for the self esteem of our kids... may each one find something to excel in and have someone cheering for them.

I pray for all the parents - that they cherish every second that they get to spend with the children that you have given them. I pray that You impress on their hearts that childhood is fleeting - remind us to turn off the tv, put down the paper and make time to talk to our kids.

I pray for self control for our kids. Lord, impulse control is hard for adults but so much harder for kids... and even harder when it's not being taught. Lord again, place someone in each child's life to teach them.

Lord, you know better than I do what each child needs and I pray that You'll provide for them... whether it's a hug or swift kick in the behind, Lord, You know the needs of all.

Lord, use me to help our teens today in any way that You can.

Amen
