Scripture and Prayers for your Inbox

There is a wonderful autism website

called Children of Destiny that will email

you a scripture verse and a prayer for the day.

I really enjoy getting this each morning and am

amazed at how many times the words seem to be

exactly what I need at that time. I would encourage

any of you other parents to check it out and take

advantage of this free bit of encouragement!

You can also have it emailed to friends and family

that take an active interest in your child.

There is a prayer specifically written for them

to pray concerning your child.

Here's the scripture and prayer for today:

"Our present troubles are quite small and won't last very long.

Yet they produce for us an immeasurably great glory

that will last forever!" (2 Corinthians 4:17)

PARENT’S PRAYER: Dear Lord, There are times when the

troubles we face seem overwhelming and when the future

seems to hold no hope. Thank you for this reminder in

2 Corinthians 4:17 that what we are facing in this day

is quite small and won’t last very long compared

to the immeasurably great glory that will last forever.

Thank you that you have made a way for every

member of this family to tap into your everlasting glory.

Thank you that your love transcends our present

struggles and will carry us through.

And thank you, Lord, that because of Jesus we are able

to tap into that everlasting love and glory even today.

Lord, I ask that each of us in this family would experience

a touch of your glory today, and find a new sense of

perspective and hope in the immeasurable glory

to come! In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
