Oh Lord thank You for Your steadfast provision over my family. I pray for Your continual help in the establishment of this precious relationship between this Mother and her children. Help me to shower Your little ones with respect and honor, expecting it in return; to teach them in such a way that they would value my approval more than the lure of any indulgence; to enjoy their company and them enjoy mine; to become the Mama whom they can trust; to give them my time, attention, laughter, approval, touch, hugs, desires, silliness, fun, play and training; to have a quiet, friendly, and meek temperance - smiling often; to correct with firm rebuke on the necessary occasions and help it to be lost in the midst of our fellowship with one another; to provide a home full of safety, security, stability, and strength that allows them the confidence and freedom to be all You have created them; to care for them in a new way; to smile, laugh, and have fun; to reach out and touch them, hug them, and shower them with loving affection; to reject the negative actions and never the child; to control my mouth and the words that roll off my tongue, that they may never be short or abusive as well as the attitude that represents my heart; to stand in the authority over my flesh that You’ve restored to me through the power of the Holy Spirit; to fill my home with love, joy, peace, patience, and kindness. Lord, lead me in how to train them in their problem areas with Your Word; to stay calm and always be relaxed in my responses to them; to have compassion on my children. Soften my heart towards them. Lord, God, I need Your strength, Your comforting words of encouragement, and Your hand of leading. Build this home and establish your throne inside! Create in us a humble spirit striving only to serve You! In Jesus powerful name I pray that all Your wonderful and precious riches would fill the rooms of my home and consume our lives and hearts in such a way that it would overflow!! I thank You Lord for Your faithfulness! Continue to be all that You are and remember us oh Lord!

The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; that they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.
Titus 2:3-5
