Christian Character Traits

CHRISTIAN CHARACTER

This is a page I use as a Perpetual Prayer guide.  It began as a guide for praying for my children but I quickly realized I--and every other child of God--needs the same prayers.  May it bless you as your pray through it.  The Family Chat and Character devotionals on my blogs are being built from this list.  If there is a particular 'trait' you would like to have explored, please send me a note!
