A Prayer For Parents
Lord, grant us children,
who will be strong enough to know when they are weak;
who will be unbending in defeat, yet humble and gentle in victory.
Grant us children, whose wishes will not take the place of their deeds;
children who will know you and know themselves.
Lead them, we pray you, not in the path of ease and comfort,
but rather in the path of difficulties and challenges.
Grant us children,
whose hearts will be clear, and whose goals will be high;
children who will master themselves before seeking to master others.
And after all these things, add, we pray,
a sense of humour, so that they can be serious,
yet never take themselves too seriously.
Then we, their parents, will dare whisper, we have not lived in vain.
(From a prayer by General MacArthur)
