Never underestimate the ponderings of a Christian parent. Never underestimate the power that comes when a parent pleads with God on behalf of a child.Who knows how many prayers are being answered right now because of the faithful ponderings of a parent ten or twenty years ago? God listens to thoughtful parents.
Praying for our children is a noble task. If waht we are doing is taking away from prayer time for our children, then we are doing too much. There is nothing more special, more precious than that time that a parent spends struggling and pondering with God on the behalf of a child.
It's not too late for the child who has brought only tears. Think of Jesus' parents; the mother who had to watch her son crucified saw her son raised from the dead. Though you may go to the grave wondering if your prayers will ever be answered, don't stop praying. God blesses faithfulness.
ePH 6:4 And fathers do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and adoration of the Lord.

Yes, yes. Never stop praying. 40, 34, and 30. Mothers never stop praying.
Love your faith words and the pretty pink dress you made.
