Prayer for fidelity to duties

(Prayer of the father of the family)

Our Father in heaven, thank you for your grace, that with you, God, I share my father's name and dignity. How You let me have a Share in Your power, so support me with the grace from on high, that I fulfill the tasks of the guardian of life with a sense of responsibility.

Teach me to do the hard duties of a father well, that we may be a family according to your will. I would always like to take care of the bread and health of my children together with my wife, for their learning and future, for their education and salvation. I know, God, that our forces are limited, but I am asking You and I will ask for Your light and strength, that we may watch over our children, by leading them with the bright example of your own life according to the holy Gospel of your Son, which is our way, truth and life. Amen.
