Prayer to submit our parenting inadequacies to God

Lord,

You know our inadequacies. You know our weaknesses, not only in parenting, but in every area of our lives. We are doing the best we can and we know it is not good enough. As You broke the fishes and the loaves, now take our meager efforts and use them to bless our family. Make up for the things we do wrong. Satisfy the needs that we have not satisfied. Wrap Your great arms around our children, and draw them close to You. And be there when they stand at the great crossroads between right and wrong. We humbly submit to You our children and ourselves and the job we are dong as parents.

In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.

(From Dr. Jame Dobson (book TBA as soon as I figure it out))
