"But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." 2 Peter 3:18
Oh, grace...As I pray that my children will understand grace, I am prompted to pray for the same understanding for myself. I confess I tend more towards justice (except where my own sin is concerned). Justice seems cleaner and easier to administer.
Lord, teach me to model sweet grace for my children. May I communicate love to them that like yours, is irrespective of their actions or behavior. As I discipline and correct them, grant me wisdom to see opportunities to teach them of sweet grace.
Amen.

Jenmom, thank you for these prayers! They echo my heart for my kidlets.

P.S. I looooove your blog. I have 5 kids - two of which are twins about the same age as your children (which I know is not nearly the same as triplets but know that I really enjoy reading about the antics of your crew!).
