Just Wednesday I posted that I was having trouble getting in the word AND I wanted to find a way to get my son in the word as well.
This morning, after having ANOTHER frustrating run in with my son, I was thinking about HOW BADLY I wanted this boy. I prayed and prayed for a boy and God answered that prayer. He is exactly what I wanted and yet I find myself at wit's end with him all the time. I love this boy more than I love my own life (I love my girls this way too but that is for another post, when they are all teenagers driving me batty!). I have felt this burden on my heart for him lately. I do KNOW IN MY HEART that God put this tender-hearted boy in a family full of sisters for a reason. I do know that God wants to use this boy for amazing things. And yet I worry about him being surrounded by us women all day long.
So today I had a free moment to check some of the blogs I follow and found a link to this site;

There is an ebook and group of mothers that are committed to praying for their sons over 21 days. The group started on Wednesday (I missed the first two days but can easily catch up).
I am SO excited how God provided this answer. I need to pray. I need to draw closer to my son's heavenly Father. I am so excited about this and I would encourage anyone of the three people who read this who have sons (or know someone who does) to join me. I will be commenting on the process through my blog.
Our sons are under attack in this culture. Men of integrity are no longer valued. We need to lift our boys up in prayer to the one and only who can lead them to live lives of irresistible influence for the kingdom of Christ!
