I was reading this morning in Romans and found myself praying these verses over my daughter. It is our prayer that she may understand the fullness of joy in Christ through faith and endure through suffering for the gospel.
Such rich words to pray over our children and teach them the goodness of our Savior...
"Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, and whose sins are covered; blessed is the man against whom the Lord will not count his sins." Romans 4:7, Ps 32:1
"Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been give to us....but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:1-10
