General MacArthur’s Prayer for His Son



Build me a son, O Lord, who will be strong enough to know when he is weak ; and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid; one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat, and humble gentle in victory.



Build me a son whose wishes will not take the place of deeds; a son who will know Thee—and that to himself is the foundation stone of knowledge.



Lead him, I pray, not in the path of ease and comfort, but under the stress and spur of difficulties and challenge. Here let him learn to stand up in the storm; here let him learn compassion for those who fail.



Build me a son whose heart will be clean, whose goal will be high, a who will master himself before he seeks other, men, one who will reach into the future, yet never forget the past.



And after all there things are his, add, I pray enough of a sense of a humor, so that he may always be serious, yet never take himself too seriously . Give him humility, so that he may always remember the simplicity of true greatness, the open mind of true wisdom, and the meekness of true strength.



Then I, his father, will dare to whisper, ”I heave hot lived in vain!”
