As children grow up it can be hard for us parents. Actually, it has been hard for me! I have watched my kids grow into adulthood. My oldest being stepson being 31, as of yesterday, and my youngest son being 18. It has been wonderful, yet hard knowing they are able to stand on their own feet. Seeing them acquire jobs, start college classes, and planning to move on their own.
As an adult I know this is process of growing older, wanting to be on their own, and developing their own lives. It is natural. Doesn't mean it is easy, it means I pray.
Lord- I am thankful for the adults you have gifted me with. They are who they are only because of You. You have molded them into the adults they are today.
I love you Lord and love the figt You have given me. And yet, I am saddened because I now the children you have given me are ready to have a life on their own, and grow into the independent adults You desire them to be.
Lord, I don't know if I am ready but I know You have made them ready. I know You have plans for them, and have done so much to prepare them for those plans. Lord, help me to let go of my adult children. Help me to give my adult children to You, knowing you will protect them and continue to work in their lives.
Lord, help me to allow Your children, the children You gifted me, to be the adults You want them to be.
