“My Lord, I want to praise you and thank you for my granddaughter’s life. She represents to me the manifestation of Your love in our home. It’s a big responsibility to prepare you for life, so give me the resources and wisdom to know the best.

May I love her, understand her, teach her the right way. Give him health, intelligence, ability, love and Your protection. May Your angel be with her in every step she takes. May I be the loving, sincere and friendly grandmother for her that she needs at any stage of her life.

Prayer for children and grandchildren

When a son or daughter has children of their own, the tendency is for grandmothers to worry twice as much about the health and well-being of their children as they do about their grandchildren. So, to protect everyone, a prayer for the children and grandchildren:

“Oh! God.

Look at my children and your children.

It strengthens them so that they grow up happy and have eyes that remember the tranquility of a lake, the firmness of a rock and the light of hope.

It gives them complete health, complete intelligence and a lively feeling.

Put in their hearts reverence for Your teachings, respect for others, love of work, dedication to studies, candor and obedience.

To make me worthy of them and not transmit nervousness, maladjustment, sadness, fear or malice to them, surround me in tranquility, balance, joy, courage and kindness.

Teach me to discover the virtues they have, to praise them without exaggeration and to correct them wisely.

First, then, mold my great and generous soul to love them in the likeness of Your love.

Thank my god! Thanks.

May God bless your family and your home.

Amen.”
