Prayers From A Mom

Join our Weekly Newsletter HERE.

So this week we go through each one of these strategies in R.E.A.D and pray that we create an environment in our house that everyone feels seen, heard, and understood.

ACTION STEPS:

1) Ask God to help you become more aware of your own thoughts, words, and actions. Begin to take inventory to see if they create a healthy environment for you and your family to open up.

2) Recognize that your self-worth doesn't come from others' thoughts, feelings, or actions. (If this is a struggle for you, counseling helped me.) It's hard to really hear your kid's thoughts and concerns when everything feels like a personal attack.

3) Use "I feel ______ " statements instead of "You make me feel ________" statements.

4) Listen to Prayers From a Mom Podcast this week to learn more about the R.E.A.D method and how you can use it in your house to foster healthy communication.

FOCUSED PRAYER:

Father,

I want to create an environment for my family where everyone feels seen, heard, and understood. I want my kids to be able to open up to me. Help me lead by example by expressing my feelings to them in a loving way. I want to be more like Jesus, quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry. Give me the right questions to ask so they learn to talk about their emotions instead of keeping it all in. Lord, you know I have a hard time keeping my opinions to myself when my kids say things I disagree with, give me the right response. Fill me with gentleness and compassion like Paul so that what I say and do empowers and uplifts my children. I want to respect and delight in my family, noticing them, showing them that I prefer them. Help me treat my family with loving concern, treasuring them, honoring them, and holding them dear.

In Jesus Name, Amen!

SCRIPTURES TO PRAY THIS WEEK:

Ephesians 5:33 AMP

James 1:19-25

Luke 7:42-44 (But also using Jesus' example throughout scripture)

So this week we are asking God to show us what that looks like. I don't have the right answers, but with prayer and reading God's word I know we can get a better understanding of how Jesus did this so well.

ACTION STEPS:

1) Acknowledge your kids when they walk in the room with a smile and hello. Give hugs and kisses when appropriate.

2) Ask God to help you understand what your kids are going through. (The things you see and don't see.)

3) Be a good listener. Your kids don't need you to solve all of their problems, they need to know you care enough to hear them.

4) Listen to Prayers From a Mom Podcast this week and pray along with us as we pray to be more empathetic with our kids.

FOCUSED PRAYER:

Father,

I know you know everything that your kids are going through, and my kids are your kids. Give me your same emphatic feeling toward them. Help me not only sympathize with my kids but also understand sharing those feelings and taking the appropriate actions when needed. Thank you for the opportunity you will give me to show empathy. I know this is not a comfortable thing when we take on someone else's emotions, but I come to you putting on the whole armor of God so that I can withstand the weight of my kid's hurt. I want my kids to feel seen, heard, and understood by me. Help me model this in a healthy way so that I can show them you as their source of strength, healing, and peace.

In Jesus Name, Amen!
