My hope and prayer

My mind had been pondering life and all the choices it brings. As I rock my little one in my arms I can't help but pray for his protection, strength, and courage to do what is right. My hope for him is to be a man of his word. I want him to be true to himself and not to say a mouth full of nonsense. I pray that he will recognize the spirit and listen to the promptings. We live in a world where evil is disguised in every way. I pray that he will recognize this and walk in the light. Everyone has weaknesses and I hope Mack recognizes what his are and what he needs to do in order to make the right choice. I hope and pray that he surrounds himself with only the finest things in life and constantly remembers our purpose here on earth. Worldly items don't bring happiness and I want him to recognize that. In time of temptation I hope and pray that he will have the courage and will power to overcome it. I want him to know that he has a purpose and there is an eternal plan to our being. I hope and pray that I can teach him and guide him to know that he is a son of god and his father in heaven loves him. That is my hope and prayer.

Beautiful. I think about stuff like this all the time. I hope and pray I can be a good mom and teach him all those things!

Sweet. I cringe to think I have to let my little man out in the big bad world without his mommy and I hope and prayer for much the same.
