It Starts At Home

Today I read about the legacy principle: the principle that dictates that we will pass down our spiritual traits through the generations. It talked about how Joseph was able to break the legacy of deceit passed down by Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.  Lord, thank You for helping me break the legacy of both of my parents in some ways.  Thank You for helping me kick the sexual addiction, and i humbly pray that You’ll continue to sustain me in that.  I pray that You’ll help me to work on my legacy in other areas as well, including my closeness with You… I want Mia and Jewel, and if You choose to give us any other children, to fully understand what it’s like to have a relationship with You, because they have a good relationship with me.  Lord, help me to be a better father… One who’s interested, and will take the time to play, when i really don’t want to.  Help me to remember that each day is a blessing.  Help me to begin with the end in mind.  I know i can do better in so man areas, and i pray that You’ll help me!  I also pray that You’ll help me to be a better husband.  I know there are many areas there that i’m lacking as well.  Lord, i pray that You’ll give me a good idea for Meagan’s birthday, and help me follow through.  Lord, i love You so much.  Thank You, thank You, thank You!
