Prier pour les enfants adultes

How to Pray for Your Adult Children

Our parenting role never ends. The job description changes, but the job is never done. For me, mom's job was more comfortable when the children were small. As grown adults, they are out of control. Their decisions, choices and actions are theirs. The only thing their mother can do is pray.

In today's world, our adult children face trials and obstacles unimaginable when we were young adults. Our adult children need us to pray for them. We must pray for their plans, their wisdom and their protection. Praying for our adult children invites God to work in their lives and gives us comfort that only He who can wants.

Every day we pray for those we love in our lives and for those who love us. We believe in the power of prayer, but above all we believe in the power of love.

Prayer for a troubled son. We live in a world where it is easier to find people to diagnose a problem than to offer a solution. Instead of focusing on what causes you pain, let's focus on what makes you win. Prayers for Adult Children are dedicated to new members of our audience who are parents, either of their own children or of other people's children. We want to remove their burdens and show them God's love in all ways, big and small.

Entering adulthood is scary. This new season of life is filled with new responsibilities, expectations and many unknowns. Pray for our sons and daughters to enter their adult lives courageously with confidence and the presence of God to give us comfort and our children the courage and guidance they need.

Dear Lord, fill children with the maturity and confidence needed to enter into adulthood. Help them face the unknowns and the expectations ahead with maturity and discernment. Guide them to put aside the things of their youth that do not benefit them in adulthood and embrace the things that make them caring and productive adults. Lead them to divine pursuits and not to childish desires.

No matter how old the sons become, they will always be concerned about their safety and well-being. When they were little it was a full time job to protect them from busy streets and hot stoves, but as adults they are out of my reach and sight. But not that of God. He has the power to protect them from anything that can harm them. He watches over them. Pray for their protection from harm.

Sometimes a child chooses a path that leads to despair and sin. As parents, it is hard to watch our sons and daughters make bad choices and suffer the consequences. It's even harder to watch them as they continue to walk down the path of destruction. In those times, we remember that God knows our pain, loves our children more than we do, and is working in their lives whether we see it or not. Our job during this time is to wait on God. While we wait, we watch for them to return on their way home.
