You've done your best to raise your children to love the Lord and to live a Christ-like life. You have trained them up in the way they should go. You have provided the best foundation possible. Yet, parenting is not an exact science and we are not able to make every choice for our children as they grow into teenagers and young adults. We are simply not able to control every outside influence. The only real choice in the matter is how we respond in trusting the all-knowing and sovereign God. He alone is able to order their steps and bring them to the point when their lives align with the will of God and all we have instilled in them. Pray Through the Middle is a simple guide to help parents experiencing seasons of guiding children of all ages, but especially those growing into adulthood, through the critical times of maturing and learning to make life decisions. This devotional journal was borne out of my own personal journey and the seasons of worry I have endured as I have guided my sons through triumphs and tragedies. It is my prayer that you will gain insight and strength for your journey while deepening your faith in God's promises for our lives and the lives of our children. -SonjaWBachus
