We have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives, so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light. Colossians 1:9-12
This is my prayer for my children every day. When I begin to worry about them (their grades, upcoming ACTs, their friends' influence, their choices they make, their driving, their work ethic, their activities...), I need to just stop, read these verses, and pray.
Stop, read, and pray -- so true! : )
