Whether it’s sending them to school, off to college, into the military, missions, or simply into adulthood, the unknown can be overwhelming. But God goes before them—and He walks with you, too. This prayer video is for every mom or dad who’s wrestled with fear, worry, and the deep ache of letting go. It will encourage you to trade anxiety for assurance as you place your child in the loving hands of the One who sees it all. 🙏 Prayer: Trusting God with Our Children’s Future Father, You see our children even when we can’t. You know every path they will walk, every friend they’ll meet, every challenge they’ll face. Help us release control and cling to Your promises. We confess our fears, our doubts, and our desire to protect. But today, we choose to trust You—their ultimate Shepherd. Fill our hearts with peace and remind us that Your plans are greater than ours. Walk with our children. Keep them safe. Lead them in truth. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
