‏ Genesis 17:18

v. 18: Abraham prays for Ishmael, asking God to bless him. He does not want Ishmael to be forgotten. This shows that parents should pray for all their children, asking God to keep them close to Him. It is right to share our worries and hopes with God through prayer (Genesis 17:18; Philippians 4:6 a; Job 1:5 b).
