From Head to Toe

I was richly blessed by a note in the mail the other day, with a wonderful prayer inside.  Linda, if you are reading this, thank you for your precious card.  What a beautiful prayer!!



Dear Father God, I pray for my daughter (and son) from head to toe:


Her Head...That she will look to YOU as Lord of her life. (1 Corinthians 11:13) 

Her Mind...That she will have the mind of Christ and think as the Holy Spirit would lead her and not the flesh. (I Corinthians 2:16) 

Hear Eyes...That YOU will keep her eyes from temptation and that she will turn her eyes from sin.  (Matthew 6:13, Mark 9:47) 

Her Ears...That she will hear YOUR still small voice instructing her.  (1 Kings 19:12, Psalm 32:8) 

Her Mouth...That her words would be pleasing to YOU. (Proverbs 19:14) 

Her Neck...That she will humble herself before YOU and be strong, courageous, and careful to do everything written in YOUR Word so that she will be prosperous and successful. (James 4:10, Joshua 1:8-9) 

Her Heart...That she will love and trust YOU with her whole heart.  (Deuteronomy 6:5, Proverbs 3:5) 

Her Arms...That YOU will be her strength.  (Psalm 73:26) 

Her Hands...That she will enjoy the work of her hands and see it as a gift from YOU.  (Ecclesiastes 3:13, 5:19) 

Her Feet...That YOU will order her steps and that she will walk in YOUR truth.  (Proverbs 4:25, Psalm 26:3)
