The challenges of being a single parent are many and this prayer card is a reminder to ask God for enough time, enough energy and enough heart to meet the needs of the family.
Lord, grant me
Time Enough
to do all the chores, join in the games,
help with the lessons, and say the
night prayers and still have a few
moments left over for me...
Energy Enough
to be bread-baker and breadwinner,
knee-patcher and peacemaker,
ballplayer and bill-juggler...
Hands Enough
to wipe away the tears,
to reach out when I'm needed,
to hug and hold, to tickle and touch...
Heart Enough
to share and to care,
to listen and to understand,
and to make a loving home
for my family.
