Pray your grandchildren will learn to control their tongue; it will prevent them from getting into trouble. Learning to get along with one’s siblings is a good place to learn to get along with others. It is often the hardest to control the tongue, within a family setting and the lies come so easy.
Psalm 34:11-14 New Living Translation (NLT)
Come, my children, and listen to me, and I will teach you to fear the Lord.
Does anyone want to live a life that is long and prosperous?
Then keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies!
Turn away from evil and do good. Search for peace, and work to maintain it.
Proverbs 12:18 New Living Translation (NLT)
Some people make cutting remarks, but the words of the wise bring healing.
Just by joining the mailing list on the right side of this page for grandparenting blogs and prayer suggestions and I will send you a free downloadable copy of “Thirty-one Scriptures to Pray for your Grandchildren.” Many grandparents have found them helpful to pray for my grandchildren.
