I heard mom and dad saying their prayers last night. I was supposed to be in bed asleep. Since they were talking to God, I stayed quiet, not making a peep .
They both thanked the Lord for all our blessings, today and every day. For His love and guidance through life's storms, He never goes away.
They prayed for all our loved ones whether close by or far away. They asked for safety and guidance for us as we go through our individual ways. And for us in our home to always let faith in Him lead our way.
They prayed for our friends and neighbors, asking that we always be kind and helpful to them. Always treat others with respect and dignity, we're all God's children.
T&ey prayed for our country and the problems it faces today. That our leaders will be wise and fair minded and work for peace not just in our country, but around the world as well. And leaders in every nation will realize violence is never the right way.
I have always known my parents prayed, I just never really thought about it. It gives me a good, warm feeling . It's important to do and I am part of it.
