“The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and one who is wise gains souls.” Proverbs 11:30, (NASV)
OH Lord, may my children abhor dishonest measures but seek after honest gain with humble and wise hearts. Keep them from pride, I pray, while You let integrity guide them and righteousness deliver them from death. Through knowledge, destroy their enemies and rescue them from trouble. Instead, let them prosper with upright lives before You. Exalt them, oh God, as You form them to be kind and understanding children who know when to be silent. In turn, teach them to be trustworthy in keeping confidences without gossip or slander. Oh Lord, I plead You will surround them with many wise advisors so they may be victorious and attain life. Find them blameless and look on them with delight as You use righteousness to set them free. OH Lord, may You bless my children with abundant generosity in heart, spirit, and deeds. Allow them to reap rewards of prosperity and good will without trusting in riches. In the same way, I pray they will bear fruit from the tree of life and inherit their due reward.
