Your Daily Prayer - A Prayer for Our Kids to Follow Christ

A heartfelt prayer, based on Psalm 23, for parents, grandparents, and caregivers who long for their children to walk faithfully with Christ. Drawing from the timeless comfort of Psalm 23, Kristine Brown reminds us that although we can’t control the spiritual choices our children make, we can intercede for them in prayer—and trust in God’s faithfulness to guide and protect them.

Today's Bible Verse: Psalm 23:6 (ESV) – “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.”
