Praying for our kids: Respect

What is that one thing that totally gets under your skin as a parent? Messy rooms, bad grammar, laziness? For me it’s disrespect.    It takes all I have not to lose my ever loving mind when my kids are disrespectful in our home or towards others. I think it’s because I know how detrimental it can be later in life if you don’t learn respect early on.     Respect is significant, so I’m thankful we’re talking about it this week. We’re praying that our kids learn to show respect not just towards the authorities in their lives but also respecting those around them because all people are made in the image of Christ. But taking it even further—let’s pray they have an extra dose of respect towards God’s Word, his church, and the people he has put in spiritual leadership in their lives.     Respect is one of the most important things we can teach our children as they learn to interact well with others. Let’s pray together over it this week!  Our Sponsors: * Check out IXL and use my code TODAY for a great deal: www.ixl.com Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
