School Year Prayers From A Mama’s Heart – December

We are almost halfway through the school year! Can you believe it? Time is flying by faster than ever! If you have missed this series, I think you will really enjoy the verses and specific focus for each month. It helps me to constantly remember that my children’s hearts are being formed day by day. The way we pray for them, influence them, and train them is such a vital part of their development. I have plenty of days that I mess up, feel overwhelmed and forfeit my “perfect mom” card, but there’s one thing we can all do that we can’t mess up and that is PRAY! With every ounce of energy left in our bodies at the end of a long day, we can pray.

Ready or not here we go! The Christmas season is upon us and the spirit of giving compels us to shop till we drop to make sure someone we love has a fabulous Christmas. In the midst of the hustle and bustle I am convicted this year to take time to fervently pray for my children’s hearts. I am praying specifically this month for giving hearts. I know the best way to cultivate a heart toward giving is to provide a powerful example of it. If I want my children to learn to give, I must be a giver. They need to see it, participate in it, and practice it.

As we pray for giving hearts, let’s lead by example. Give gifts, money, food, clothing, coats, shoeboxes, cookies…whatever you can give – DO IT!
