Opening Prayer
Together:
+ O God, to fall in love with You is the greatest romance, to seek You, the greatest adventure, to find You, the greatest human achievement. Loving Father teach us to love You with all our heart, all our soul, all our mind, and all our strength. (Memorize this)*
Hail Mary…
Most Holy Trinity, may all fathers imitate St. Joseph and You in blessing their children every day. +Amen
*When Jesus was a boy, St Joseph taught Him to memorize and pray always “You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart…” which is the first and Greatest Commandment for us to obey! -Mt 22:38 The more that you love God, the happier you will be!
Awesome! Blessing my children is one of my favorite parts of bedtime!
Amen! One of the greatest legacies we leave our kids is our daily fatherly blessing. It is spiritually powerful, protects them and blesses others through them. May all dads exercise their spiritual authority!
This was a good exercise for our kids to see that the nightly blessings we do are not unusual and have been going on since Jesus himself was blessed by God.
