Pray your grandchildren will do their work with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not men. Colossians 3:23 NIV
During this summer season when the children are out of school it’s a good time for children to learn to do chores and responsibilities around the house cheerfully. Encourage your grandchildren to do their work without complaining and doing it when they are told to do their work. You may ask your grandchildren to help you with some projects around your house for some instruction and bonding time.
In Proverbs 19:4 we read, Lazy men are soon poor; hard workers get rich. Teach your grandchildren that a good work ethic brings rewards.
Additional prayer helps: I have developed “Thirty-one Scriptures to Pray for Grandchildren” and “Scriptures to pray for Teen Grandchildren”. Many grandparents are using these Scripture to pray for their grandchildren. Just by joining the mailing list on the right side of this page you will receive grandparenting blogs and prayer suggestions to pray for your grandchildren regularly. I will send you a free downloadable copy of “Thirty-one Scriptures to Pray for your Grandchildren” and “Scriptures to Pray for Teen Grandchildren”
