My God,

You are the creator of life and the source of all wisdom. As I prepare to become a parent, I come before You in humility and anticipation. I ask for Your guidance and strength as I step into this new season of life. Help me to embody Your love and grace as I raise and nurture this precious child.

Grant me the patience and understanding to navigate the challenges of parenthood. Give me the wisdom to make decisions that honor You and reflect Your character. May I be a source of spiritual encouragement and support for my child, pointing them toward You and Your eternal love.

I entrust this journey of parenthood to Your divine care, knowing that You are always with me. I surrender my fears and uncertainties to You, trusting in Your perfect plan for my family. Thank You for the blessing of this child, and I pray for Your peace and strength to guide me in the days to come.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
