May His Face Shine Upon You: Blessings for Mother and ChildSample

God’s Protection

Blessing for Mom

God is your creator, defender, deliverer, and provider. May He inspire fresh, creative ways to make a living. May He put a fresh spring in your steps. May your confidence in Him grow by the moment. May He defend you against the accusations of your critics. May He deliver you from the schemes of the enemy. And may He more than provide for all your needs. He is faithful.

May you be mindful to pause regularly and reflect on the many ways God has come through for you. This will strengthen your heart. May you cultivate a heart that knows how to rest in God alone. This will nourish your soul. As you look to Jesus and remember His faithfulness, your whole countenance will change, and others will be reminded that there’s a God in heaven very much involved in their own lives. He intends to get us safely home. But don’t wait till then to find rest in Him. Embrace a heart-at-rest kind of day.

Blessing for Child

Praise God! He gives us everything we need every day. Thank Him for your food, for your house, for your family, for your friends. He protects us from bad people and bad things. Yay, God! You are so good to us. May your eyes open up to all of the good ways God takes care of us. Smile as you think about how God is just like a great big castle that protects you every day.
