Good Words for Today: January 8

A father prayed for years for his children. When his children went to bed, the father would go into the bedroom and stand over his children, praying for them every single night. They always knew that Dad was there when they were younger. As they got older, he would wait until they were asleep and then go in and pray. Even later when they were gone off to college, he would still go in and pray over where they had been. The father was talking to his children one day and he mentioned that he still prayed for them every night without fail. The kids said they knew that. But how did they know? They said, “We see the footprints in the carpet.”
