dedication prayer

Lord God,
We come before you today, praising and thanking you for hand picking these girls to be a part of these families...we acknowledge that it is through you that life is given and as breath was breathed in, physical life began. We ask Lord for another day to come when spiritual life will be a part of each of these girl's lives as well. A day when they will accept the gift of salvation found in Jesus Christ alone by crossing the line of faith and believing in you.

Lord God, as they grow may they, as daughters of the King, seek you first.
whenever they are sad, may they find comfort in you.
whenever they are weak, may their strength be found in you,
when they are feeling hopeless, may your light shine brightly,
when they know joy, may they thank you,
when they delight in blessing, may they worship you,
and when they find relationship in others, may they honor you first.

Bless their siblings, their parents. Give insight and understanding in the task of parenting.
Draw these families together in love, in peace, and in the hope of the kingdom to come. Bless them with more than they can possibly think or imagine.

We pray this in the name of Jesus,
Amen.
