Happy New Year!

Let’s gather together as many transition in to a new school year – whatever that looks like this year:  first timers, last timers, new schoolers, homeschoolers, freshmen away from home, online at home, new jobs, old jobs, traffic tangles, last minute retail, meal prep, endless paperwork and everything in between!  Praying for children and teachers and bus drivers and support staff and administration – and parents, too!  🙂

Heavenly Father, Lord and Master Teacher, how we love and trust You as a new school year with many emotions unfolds!  We pray that our children will remember You and recall Your truth as they go about their schooling each day.  Help them be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry, guarding their words as they interact with others. We pray that they can easily forgive when offended and show love and mercy in all situations.  Help them to shine brightly for You, Jesus!

God, we ask that you provide a blanket of peace and security this school year over our parents, staff, and students. We ask for protection and safety for them all. 

Yours is the Kingdom!  Yours is the Power!  Yours is the Glory!  Now and 180 days and forever!  In Jesus’ name, Amen. Matthew 6:13
