Something I desire to better myself at, is praying with my wife and children at home. Sometimes during the week we will have family prayer, consisting of each person giving multiple prayer requests, and then praying for them. Then usually some discussion.
Less often tho, comes prayer individually with eachother. Some bedtime prayers. Dinner table prayer. But I would like to become more comfortable with "one to one" prayer with my wife and kids. I want it to become a regular daily thing that we each become accustomed to and even desire. I very much believe that it can tear down many walls, and help build a closeness and a very peaceful home(among other things).
That said, I'm open to ideas of how some may make prayer together happen regularly with spouse and kids, individually. Not even so much of am major prayer intercession, but mostly a rap my arms around him/her, and say a prayer ofencouragement or whatever comes to mind...
Maybe it's as simple as just start Doing it- lol.
(My wife homeschools our kids, and they generally start the day in prayer, afterthe which I have prayed alone and am already generally gone to work, so my prayer time with them cannot happen till the evening.)
Thoughts? Ideas? Anybody mastered this area of expertise?
