Parent Tip 12 - How To (Teach Your Teenager To) Pray

Okay parents, have you prayed today? If you said no, are you sure? Not even a little bit? Not even a quick, "Please show me where I left my keys"? If your answer is yes, what did your prayer time look like? Was it a beautiful time of uninterrupted communion with God? Or was it more along the lines of, "Thanks for today, help me not scream at my kids too many times, amen"? If we're honest, we all struggle with finding time to pray sometimes, which makes it difficult (and maybe a little nerve-wracking) when you realize as a parent that you now have to teach your teenager how to do something you're not sure you're even that great at doing! If you can relate, let me give you a tip that will not only help you teach your teenager how to pray, but it will help you learn to pray a little more consistently as well. It's really easy. Just think about these three words that you say all the time (and that you've taught your kids to say all the time) and say them to God: "please," "thanks," and "sorry." Say "please" when you need help. Say "thanks" when you're grateful for what God has done or in awe of who God is. Say "sorry" when you've blown it. And teach your kids to do the same. Even if these are the only words you can manage for now, it's something.
