Our Daughter’s Twelfth Birthday: Stepping into New Beginnings

Today, our sweet daughter turns twelve, officially stepping into her pre-teen years. This milestone feels monumental as I look back on the journey we’ve been on together. While the past year has been marked by significant transitions, our daughter continues to shine with strength, kindness, and a heart for the Lord.

Watching her navigate new challenges at school, friendships, and life in general has been humbling. She’s growing into a young woman who is thoughtful, compassionate, and wise beyond her years. It’s been a privilege to see her faith deepen as she learns to lean on God in every circumstance.

As her dad, my greatest prayer is that she knows how deeply loved she is… by me, but even more so by her Heavenly Father. I pray she understands the incredible purpose God has for her life and that she continues to grow into the woman He’s calling her to be.


Reflection Questions

  2. What practical steps can you take to instill a strong foundation of faith in your children as they mature?

I give You all honor, all the glory, and all the praise. It’s in Jesus’ name I pray. Amen & Amen.
