Gioia asked to go back to Sunday school Saturday night, my excuse of wanting to lie in with my children and spending Sunday morning in my PJ’s all of a sudden seemed silly and actually rather selfish. Sunday morning we rose and got dressed and I even felt a child like excitement to take my Isla to the family section of Hatfield and there I held her in my arms and sang my heart out during praise and worship. Gioia was so thrilled to walk through the doors of C4G it made me commit to the Lord that by hook or crook I will be taking my children to Sunday school so Jesus can work in their hearts, like my mom did for me (You were so faithful with this mom, a quality I admire in you so much more now that I have kidlinks). I started this gray Monday morning off in my room with a quiet time again, I put on Gioia’s favourite praise and worship CD and closed my eyes waiting to feel and asking for the presence of the Holy Spirit in my heart, my room and my house. I feel a need to write the following to my friends, I want to make my home a place where any of you can come and together we PRAY FOR OUR CHILDREN. I have this little green book that I got as a gift before Gioia was born and I read it so much during my pregnancy with her I now I want to read it again daily and speak the prayers over my children’s lives because If you are not covering your children in prayer every day, you are leaving their lives to chance, and we cannot have that. We have to as mommy’s tick so many boxes daily in order for our little girls or boys to have a full happy childhood but thee most important box is prayer, and not just quick shots up to heaven like I do all day beginning with Please Lord...we need to cover other aspects to. If anybody at anytime wants to commune with me in my home or just wants a word for their children please contact me, I feel this is my responsibility, I feel it deep and I feel it urgent. I want to learn how to cover every aspect of my girlies lives in prayer and I want to gather together as moms, we have a common goal and where two or three are gathered....AMEN
TODAY: Lord I bring Gioia and Isla before You and ask that You would help them grow into a deep understanding of who You are. Open their beautiful hearts and bring them to a full knowledge of the truth about You. I pray that they will have faith and that they will call you Saviour like Johan and I do and that they will experience the power of being filled by the Holy Spirit. Help my girls to fully believe that Jesus laid down His Life for them and so that they might have life, eternal and abundantly.
