Guarding Our Children

Fragmented families are cause for concern.
The children cry out. Their little hearts yearn
To just be at home with Mom and with Dad.
Because they can't do this, so many are sad.

Home is a shelter and family it's base,
Where children are strengthened life's trials to face.
When family is broken the children have fear,
And deep insecurity robs them of cheer.

Parents, be strong, alert and aware!
Cover your family with wisdom and prayer.
Close all the doors to evil's design,
Lest enemy forces your home undermine.

"... As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord."
Joshua 24:15 KJV
