Let <insert child’s name here> pay attention to what my husband and I say, listening carefully to our words. Don’t let him lose sight of them. Let them penetrate deeply into his heart because they bring life and healing. I pray that he would guard his heart above all else since it determines the course of his life. May <insert child’s name here> avoid all perverse and corrupt talk. I ask that he would keep looking straight ahead, fixing his eyes on you. Mark out a straight path for <insert child’s name here>—a safe path. Don’t allow him to get sidetracked. Keep his feet from following evil.Proverbs 4:20-27
