FREE Printable: Character Cards for Prayer with Your Children

Thank you for being here at The Purposeful Mom! I wanted to share these Character Cards with you that you can use during your devotional or prayer time with your children.

The idea for these cards came out of an earlier post I wrote about how we do devotions with our children. During that time, we use prayer cards, with names of family, friends and "character qualities" written on 3x5 notecards that we store in a small box. You can learn more about what we do here.

A reader mentioned that she was going to write a Bible verse or reference on each card to go along with the character quality on that card! So I've made up some colorful 3x5 cards with 20 Biblical character qualities on them along with a Scripture verse and two extra references that I hope you will print, cut and use with your family.

They aren't designed to be used in this manner: "Cindy, you were so mean to your brother--go pray over your character cards!"

But rather in this manner: "James, why don't we ask God to give us wisdom by praying Scripture over our family." :)

It's important for us to remind our children that we can't "muster up" these qualities on our own. We need the Holy Spirit to nurture them in us! Philippians 2:13 tells us, "for it is God who works in you to will and to act according to His good purpose."

Here's an example of the cards!
