Prayer

I think it is very important for your children to see you pray. I know the Bible speaks about getting alone in a quite place to pray, and I know you need that as well. But, if our children do not see us pray as "mothers" then how will they learn to pray themselves? Allowing your children to see you and even be apart of your daily prayer time with God, teaches them how to have a daily prayer life with the Heavenly Father as well. I do not believe any age is too young to pray. I usually tell Alexis that mommy is going to pray, and she likes to come into the room with me. At times, she kneels beside me and says, " I wanna pay.." So, I cuddle her to me and begin to pray my prayer list out loud. When she gets bored she moves and goes to play while I begin to pray silently again. But, she looks so precious when she folds her hands and closes her eyes. I just had to snap a picture of it the other day. It is the most precious thing I have ever seen and I want to hold this picture dear to my heart -always. I thank God for children!!
