God,
Today I'm praying for my dad. He doesn't talk much about how he's doing, and I know his back hurts more than he says. Give him strength for his work, rest for his body, and a reason to smile this week. Remind him he is loved, by me and by You.
In Jesus' name, Amen.

Bible verses about family
And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.
Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
