Bad Parents of the Bible - A Nighttime Prayer

As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear him. -- Psalm 103:13 (ESV)

Please Pray:

Lord, there are times when being a parent means hanging on by your fingernails. You allowed your one and only Son to die for our sins so that we might be saved by grace. Help us to hold on to our faith through those agonizing tearful nights and remember that "joy comes in the morning". In Jesus' Name, Amen.
