We worry about our families and family matters too much not to finally put our family in God’s hands. How many times do we have to hear it? “Pray, don’t worry. But if you’re going to pray, don’t worry, if you’re going to worry, don’t pray.”

AN “OUR FAMILY” PRAYER After this manner, give God your family. Our family, who art in thy hands, Follow them I pray, While in earth, Til they ascend into heaven. Lord give us this day, our daily faith; and forgive our upsets, as we forgive those who have upset us. Let us not, continue to be divided, and deliver us from, irreconcilable differences. For you are the Author, And the Finisher of our family, forever, Amen

Yes they are, and this a plea to the mercies of children upon parents who gave them their all, to not forget them when they’re now old.
