 Parents' Prayer for Vocations
Gracious and loving God,
You have blessed us with the privilege of becoming Parents.
We ask that You provide us with all that we need
in accepting this awesome responsibility.
We pray that we will be open to Your Spirit Who is our source of strength as we witness to our children Your love for each of them and Your desire for them to be happy and to live a full life.
We ask Your help so we may guide and encourage our children to believe that they each have a special calling and to use their gifts and talents for others.
We pray, Heavenly Father,
that our children will discover and respond enthusiastically to Your desire for them whether it be to the vocation of single, married, ordained or consecrated life.
We offer this prayer in the name of Jesus
through the grace of the Holy Spirit.
Amen. |
