Lord, we thank you for the precious gift of August in our lives. We know that every good gift comes from You, and that You have given him to us to care for and raise. Help us to release him into Your protection, guidance, and counsel. For us not to live in fear of possible dangers, but in the joy and peace of knowing that You are in control. We rely on You for everything, and this day we trust and release August into Your hands. Amen.
O dear Jesus, I humbly implore You to grant Your special graces to our family. May our homes be the shrine of peace, purity, love, labor and faith. Come and fill our homes with your presence, You alone are worthy of our reverence. Lord we vow to live holy, bowing our knees to You only. These are our hopes and ideals. Help us to attain them, O God, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
All praise to You, Lord Jesus, Lover of children: Bless the Reynolds family, and help them to lead their children to You. Give them light and strength, and courage when the task is difficult. Let Your Spirit fill them with love and peace, so that they may help their children to love You. All glory and praise are Yours, Lord Jesus, for ever and ever. Amen.
Lord Jesus,
You welcomed children into your loving arms like they were ambassadors to the kingdom. Please bless Blake as we lift him up in prayer to you. Give us calm strength and patient wisdom as he is brought up in the faith, that we may teach him to love whatever is just and true and good, following the example of our Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
