Praying with your child satisfies her need to connect with God. Kids like prayer. When you pray with them, it gives them security. It reminds them that even when you’re not there, God is watching over them. And prayer will draw you closer to your children. Prayer is an intimate act. It is something you do together that seems profoundly important. And it underlines for your children that even their big, strong, hero dad gets down on his knees to acknowledge and seek guidance from the God who gives us our moral law to live by.
