Your Soul To Keep

<p>Now I lay you at His feet</p><p>and pray the Lord <strong>your soul to keep</strong>. </p><p>May angels guard you through your life </p><p>and guide you in God's perfect light.</p><p>These words are my whole-heart's prayer for our adult kids. Our kids fully belong to God. Their souls are fully in His hands. And even though it's been true since the first moment we held them in our arms <strong>letting go of the details of parenting feels unnatural</strong>...even undoable at times. </p><p>Our role as parents changes profoundly the moment our kids become adults. Instead of being children under our authority they become fellow adults under God's authority who need a positive Christian relationship with their parents as they make their own way in the world. But becoming the parent of adults is not a demotion. In many ways it is more important than ever <strong>requiring more grit emotional stamina wisdom and dependence on God </strong>than we ever imagined<strong>. </strong></p><p><strong>When parents of adult children commit to pray</strong> we make a conscious choice to step onto a spiritual battlefield plant our flag and claim God's territory in the lives of our kids. We aren't running into battle with swords but the enemy is absolutely waging war and prayer is our most powerful weapon against his schemes to keep our kids in bondage. </p><p><em>Your Soul To Keep</em> is a prayer book that guides personal prayers for your adult kids as well as giving you detailed plans for establishing a small group of warriors who will join you in prayer. Use it in solitude with others or take the leap and do both! </p><p><strong>Monthly Battle Plans </strong>include:</p><ul><li><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Starter-questions to prompt fellowship</span></li><li><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Devotions about the names of God with questions to guide application to your life as a parent</span></li><li><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Adult coloring pages to guide personal prayer</span></li><li><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Worship songs that align with the names of God</span></li><li><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Note pages for recording requests and celebrations for each adult child</span></li><li><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Scripture-based prayers to read aloud</span></li></ul>
