Prayer For A Loving Relationship At Home

#spiritualjourney

Heavenly Father,
I thank You for my family, and bless You that You placed me in this home.
Thank You for the parents You gave me,
and the friends and family that You have placed in my life.

Help us to draw ever closer to each other in the bond of love and fellowship
and may You become the central focus of our home, our hearts and our family
more and more with every passing day.
And I pray that
the influence of Your love and grace in our lives, will reach out to all.

May our hearts be united in love for You
and may there be Christian harmony, one with the other.
Help us to develop a biblical perspective in our home,
serving and being served,
loving and being loved
and looking to Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith,
the unseen guest at every meal
and the silent visitor to every conversation.

Help us to be real in our conversation
and honest in our hopes and fears
and help us to listen to each other with genuine interest and encouragement.
Develop in us the same mind that was in Christ Jesus
and may we learn to live in godly harmony together,
not being selfish or self-important
but gracious, courteous and thinking of the needs of others before our own,
and Lord, may Jesus be welcome into our home every moment of the day,
in whose name we pray,

Amen.
