Dear Lord,

I’m asking You to show me how I can show more daily love to our girls in such a way that they would see You even more. Help me to put on a smile glowing like a full moon even when my day was challenging. Help me make them laugh even more than they do so they know a healthy alternative to sadness and anxiety. Help me to be a living example of gratefulness and contentment so they don’t fall into the world of entitlement.  Help me be there for them especially in those times when they need their dad’s hugs and words of encouragement. Help me to bring them to You for their deepest needs and cries of their hearts so they grow in You more than anything. Teach me more on how to listen to their stories of the day to show them that everything matters. Remind me in the toughest of days that You care even more than Traci and I do about their wellbeing.

So Lord I give them to You again and say WOW..You amaze me daily on how You are shaping the character of our kids! Thank you forever for Olivia and Hannah! You couldn’t have done better!!

Brad
