Becoming a Lighthouse To Higher Ground

21 He who sires a fool does so to his sorrow,

And the father of a fool has no joy.

If you have kids, you know the sorrow  of standing beside them after foolish decisions that they have made.  You know the lack of joy in the punishing and the discipline. These are our children, this is our world future.  Rather than speak of the foolish in future generations, I want to approach today’s Proverb through the lens of prayer.

Do you have a child/grandchild/brother/sister/friend/relative/acquaintance that might be walking out foolish decisions?   Let’s agree to band together and pray into these lives, rather than standing in judgement of them. 

Lord we pray that we would move Your heart through the power of prayer and intercession for those that weigh heavily on our hearts.  WE pray for their hearts to stop and listen, and for a break of sunlight in their days.  Help us to reach out to them and be Your hands and feet, your eyes, ears and heart. Help us to love well and become a lighthouse to higher ground.
