A Father's Day Prayer (6.18.17)

GOD,
Bless all the fathers in the world.
Guide them to be good role models
      and loving to all their children.
Help them to be a father, like You are,
       to all of your children.

Give them grace and patience to handle situations in a loving way.

Thank you, Jesus, for my father who loves me, for my grandfather who cares for me and for GOD, Your father and mine, who made me; and is always with me. Your love is truly a blessing! 

GOD our Father, in Your wisdom and love, You made all things.

Bless these men that they may be strengthened as Christian fathers. May their sons and daughters honor them always with a spirit of profound respect. Your Word says that all children will honor their mother and their father that their days may be longer. 
 
I thank you Lord for all dads, please take care of them as they age gracefully but are still brave and bold. Father GOD, there are so many fathers who were absent from the lives of their children but bless these fathers anyway Lord. Father GOD there were so many fathers who abused their children and did not love and protect them in the way Your Word says they should, but bless them anyway so they may see and experience Your Love in a way that will make them want to live their lives for you always.

Strengthen and protect them as they carry out their duties as father, husband and protector over the family You have blessed them with.

In the name of Jesus Christ,
Amen


Fathers everywhere we honor you
     and may GOD's blessings be with you
     in a special way today!
