00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.280
Heavenly Father, I lift up this child to you, asking that they always know how deeply they are loved,

2
00:00:07.280 --> 00:00:12.560
by me, by those around them, but most importantly, by you.

3
00:00:12.560 --> 00:00:17.360
Before they took their first breath, you knew them and you called them by name.

4
00:00:17.360 --> 00:00:23.520
Let their heart be filled with the security of your love, a love that never fails and never leaves.

5
00:00:23.520 --> 00:00:28.000
When they feel afraid, remind them that you are their protector.

6
00:00:28.240 --> 00:00:32.240
When they feel alone, whisper your presence into their heart.

7
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:36.160
Surround them with people who show them kindness and point them to you.

8
00:00:36.160 --> 00:00:41.440
As they grow, plant in them a love for your word and desire to follow you.

9
00:00:41.440 --> 00:00:45.200
Let them seek you not out of duty, but out of joy.

10
00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:49.360
May they always walk in your truth and know that they are cherished.

11
00:00:49.360 --> 00:00:51.760
In Jesus' name, Amen.
