Grandparenting with a Purpose: Effective Ways to Pray for your Grandchildren
“A gentle turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger” Proverbs 15:1
Pray your grandchildren will learn to control themselves when angry. It’s all right to get angry, but we must learn to control our anger. If you are around your grandchildren when they get mad share with them how you have learned to control your anger. You may have even learned the hard way. A wise person holds his/her temper. Many times, children don’t like to be around other children who are angry and throwing tantrums.
” . . . is not easily angered. I Corinthians 13:5b
Additional prayer helps: I have developed “Thirty-one Scriptures to Pray for Grandchildren” that many grandparents are using to pray for their grandchildren. Just by joining the mailing list on the right side of this page you will receive grandparenting blogs and prayer suggestions. I will send you a free downloadable copy of “Thirty-one Scriptures to Pray for your Grandchildren”.
