I am super-incredibly blessed to have AMAZING+++++++++ parents. Both mum and dad have prayed (and continue to) for my brothers and I since we were little little. Even now in adulthood (Shux I still feel like a kid!) when hitting the odd rough spot here and there have felt carried in prayer as they’ve stepped in and prayed for me. I only hope I can follow their wonderful example and pray for the 4 little lives that have been placed in our care

I’ve heard stories of mums who have laid prostrate on their rebellious teenager’s bed and cried out on their behalf, of another mum sitting bolt upright in bed compelled to pray for her daughter’s safety, who was involved in a near fatal accident at that exact time. The power of a praying mum…

My mother prayed scripture over our lives:
Isaiah 44 verses 3-4; “I will pour my spirit on your offspring and blessing on your descendants. They will spring up like grass in a meadow, like poplar trees by flowing streams” saying; “I belong to the Lord”
Isaiah 54 verse 13; “All your children will be taught by the Lord and great will be their peace”

When pregnant with no. 1 and then no.2 I asked God and sought out verses especially to pray for each of them from the womb. Babies 3 and 4… I must have been too tired and forgot!!! Challenged as writing to do the same for them!
