Girlie Friendship
I remember when I was in my late teens how important friends were. Above is a picture of my younger daughter (middle) with her two good friends from church. This is such an important time in their lives and I'm so thankful she has had them to share all the "girlie" things with. They all want to please God in their lives and are at various stages of schooling, etc. and each comes from a different culture. But they have unity in Christ.
However, my biggest prayer for them is that one day God will give to each of them a godly and honorable husband. I'm sure that He is the One who must do that and I'm praying they'll all be patiently waiting on Him until that time comes. I pray they'll keep themselves unto Him and for that day when He provides for them as only He can. I'm sure many of you will be praying the same prayer with me for our daughters and granddaughters.
By the way, my newest grandchild due in September is another girl. For whatever His reasons, the Lord has wanted our family to raise daughters for the kingdom. :)

awww, this is so sweet!! Thank you for posting this...and you don't need me to tell you how much I love your family. =)
Congratulations, Maxine!
Boy, I sure look forward to your wisdom about teens and teen girls. My daughter is 12 going on 18 sometimes, going on 10 at others.
Great prayer for our children.
Love, chrisd fro yahoo360
Hey Chris! Long time no talk to!! Yes, I know what you mean, lol!
How fun! Girls are fun to raise.
I pray right choices be made by your daughter and her friends. That they realize Christ is all in all for their lives, above everything. It's something they have to come to themselves and thru much prayer and intercession from those who love them.
Please keep my oldest in your prayers. She's had a crossroads where very important decisions need to be made concerning her relationship with her Savior.
God is good, and I have no doubt that she'll made the right ones, and my prayer is that it happen sooner than later, when she might have many regrets.
God bless!
Yes, Brenda, you have two girls also I know. Hope all's well with your family and will do. Putting her down for prayer.
I pray for godly wives for my 2 sons. Your daughter is lovely.
I join my heart with yours in that prayer Maxine. We could do nothing greater for them.
Thanks, Linda and Mary.
They will always treasure these friendships during their teens! Congratulations on another princess on the way!
Came across your blog while surfing. Looking forward to following. Have a great day.
Thanks for the visit, Joyful Grandma! Hope to get by to see you later today.
The Lord choose you for the girls and me for the boys :) He is good, Amen? What a lovely picture of your daughter and her friends. It is wonderful to have good friends of like-mind and precious faith :)
What an absolutely beautiful daughter you have and all the girls in the photo are beautiful! I pray Godly husband's for them too!
Awesome to hear Maxine that you have another grandbaby on the way in September. Congratulations and all God's best for you and your family!
Love you!
Thanks, Susan and Lisa. All we can do is raise them as best we can and leave them to God. We only know for sure when they leave and make homes of their own, right? Be blessed.
Great entry Maxine, I also am so thankful for the same, our daughters are so blessed to have sweet pure Christian girlfriends with the same values and love for Jesus. I pray the same for our girls too. Darling girls by the way.... : )
Oh, I know you share my sentiments, Amelia. Love reading about your lovely daughters as well. I owe you a visit soon!
