My Blue Luna | Homeschooling

One of my favorite blogs is MODSquad because it is a community of women who gather together to encourage one another in this journey called “motherhood” – specifically, we are all Mothers of Daughters.  I stumbled on this group when it was just beginning and have been a loyal follower since.  If you have never been there, I would encourage you to make a cup of tea and sit down and explore the site. ( there is also a site for MOB’s – Mothers of Boys)

All us embark on school – some of us homeschool, some unschool, some use a  co-op and still others go a more traditional route.  Regardless of how our children are taught, they need, no the deserve, us to spend time on our knees praying for them.  Life is so much more complicated than it was for us and an even more important reason for us to spend time in the Word interceding for them. Here is a prayer that we can all use to pray blessing over our girls and intercede in the Heavenly realms for them – to make a change.

Dear Lord,

Thank you for the gift of motherhood and for entrusting us to raise these little girls in Your name.  As they begin a new school year, we pray that their lives would be grounded in You.  May they live for You, reflect Your love to others, and call on Your name in times of joy and times of sadness.  May they grow in wisdom and make memories that will stay with them for a lifetime.  Jesus we pray patience for all teaching and joy in all friendships.  Help us as mothers to walk along them in this journey, pointing out their strengths and helping them grow.  In both good times and stressful moments, let our parenting words glorify You so that we may nurture their academic experience and enhance their faith.

Amen.
