Worry About Children

Few things produce anxiety like concern for your children — their safety, choices, faith, and future. Whether they are small and vulnerable or grown and making their own decisions, the urge to protect and control can consume you. God loves your children even more than you do, and He invites you to entrust them to His care. These scriptures encourage you to pray rather than worry, to trust God's faithfulness across generations, and to release your children into His capable hands.
