Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them. Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord. Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged. – Colossians 3:18-21
Father God, thank you and Praise You for the gift of family and the relationships we have in our lives. May we walk in love, respect, and kindness toward one another. Grant all individuals’ wisdom to honor and support each other. May children obey their parents with willing hearts, and may parents nurture their children with patience, encouragement, and strength. Guide us in truth so that our homes may be filled with peace and harmony, reflecting mutual love and understanding. Help us to resolve conflicts with gentleness, to speak words of encouragement, and to treat one another with compassion. Let presence and care be felt in our hearts and in the way we interact with one another. We aim to grow together in faith and love. Let us care for those You have placed in our care and may all be well with our souls. Love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
