For a family with four children

Dear Jesus,

You created families, and You are the One who blesses them with children. We don't understand why this precious family has a child with some difficulties, but we know You love her and her parents and You have a plan for all of their lives. Please give this mom and dad wisdom in how to deal with these special challenges. Put in their path people who can help and offer encouragement as they travel this difficult road. Help these parents to abide in Your presence and to trust You and hold tight to Your hand even in the most challenging days. Help them see this daughter as the blessing she is and not as a burden. May Your love shine through this family as they minister to each other. May their example of faith and courage draw other families with similar challenges to You.

I ask all this in Your powerful name.
Amen
