A Dangerous Request

She Honors God

This woman’s prayer for her children leaves me in shock. Her phrase, “make them dangerous” challenges me, even though I ‘m childless. Could I be courageous enough to pray this prayer over my children, if I had any? Or even over myself? Because I’m 100% certain the Lord is delighted.

“I don’t ask God to keep my children safe, I ask Him to make them dangerous.” (unknown mother)

I came across Theresa Whiting’s post a few months ago, containing this quote. She shares some great insights from a mother’s point of view.

So I decided to provide a link to Theresa’s post,  A Mother’s Dangerous  Prayer.

Editor’s Note: It’s a few days later and I’ve just prayed, “Lord, make me dangerous” for the first time.
