Parenting With Purpose: Strengthening Your Influence With Your ChildUkážka

# Day 1: Recognizing Your Influence ## Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank you for entrusting me with the precious gift of being a parent. Help me understand the power of my influence and guide me in using it wisely. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen. ## Bible Verse: Proverbs 22:6 (NIV) "Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old, they will not turn from it." ## Devotional: As a parent, you have a significant role in shaping the life of your child. Your influence can have a lasting impact on their faith, character, and decisions. Today, take a moment to reflect on the responsibility and privilege you have been given. Your child is a precious soul, entrusted to your care by God Himself. Pray and ask God to reveal to you the importance of your role as a parent. Seek His wisdom and guidance in leading your child on the path of righteousness. Remember that children are like sponges, absorbing everything they see and hear. Make a conscious effort to be a positive example in your words and actions. Take time today to connect with your child. Listen attentively to their thoughts, dreams, and concerns. Show them love, understanding, and acceptance. By building a strong relationship, you will strengthen your influence in their lives. Embrace this opportunity to guide them in the ways of the Lord.
