Well welcome to Friday and to this month’s prayer focus.
September is the month that those parents who sent kids off to schools in August and those just sending kids off in September face the same question……what now. It is quite different from what we are used to. This month let’s pray specifically for the empty nesters
Let’s pray for productive time fillers like the renewing of a passion, volunteer opportunities, great hobbies. We also just want to pray for FUN!!! Praying for plenty of laughter, good activities, enjoyment. We also want to pray for friendships, marriages and healthy relationships to reignite, re-establish and be a positive impact. One of the things that can also help is some healthy communication with the kid or kids they are missing. Knowing you are going to hear from them and they are hopefully going to keep you up to date on their lives is a great comfort. Praying that they can talk about and set a time to touch base for quick chats and data dumps. In all of this we are praying the empty nester is able to focus on the positives….the opportunities and adventures that can come for both their kids and themselves.
If you are wondering around an empty home for the first time, please know we are covering you in prayer AND it is all going to be okay.
Have a wonderful weekend.
You are so kind in how you think of others!
