Prayer for the parent struggling to find time with God
There was a video about this on my news feed this morning and I wanted to take a moment to lift up all parents that may be feeling like they can’t find the time to sit down with the Lord. Heavenly Father, I pray for those parents that feel like they can’t get away from the toys everywhere or constant potty training or being called upon anytime they’re alone. Give them strength and endurance to keep going the next minute, the next hour, the next day. Jesus, meet them in the midst of it all and speak to them even in the smallest of moments. May they hear your voice in the smiles on their children’s faces or the minute of silence when the kids are playing so nicely together or the peace when everyone is asleep. Jesus come meet us at the well during our everyday coming and going. Share who you are with us while we run errands or clean the house or even when we’re in the bathroom. Teach us to be attuned to your voice so we can hear you in the chaos. Show us to find you in the hardest days. Lead us to you Lord God in all that we do. Thank you for caring for us so much to sit with us without judgement in our mess and give us exactly what we need. Thank you for being our loving Father. In the mighty name of Jesus, Amen!
