Many of us hope and pray that our kids do better than us.
King David had lots of wives. His son Solomon had more–700 wives, more or less. Way more than his father.
1 Kings 11:4 (NIV)
His wives turned his heart after other gods, and his heart was not fully devoted to the Lord his God, as the heart of David his father had been.
Solomon had more wives and less devotion.
Lord God, may my children do better by you than I have, more devotion, less distraction.
