Good morning, Father.

Thankfulness should be a daily, moment by moment attitude of my heart. Show me how to teach thankfulness to the precious children I serve week after week. Let thankfulness in all that You provide for us always be at the center of my heart and my children’s hearts.

“I never stop giving thanks for you, as I remember you in my prayers.”  (Ephesians 1:16, HCSB)

In the power of Jesus’ name, Amen.

Good morning, Father.

There is nothing more precious than knowing I am Your child, redeemed, and valued. How can anyone doubt this because of the work Jesus did on the cross? Father, remind the girls and boys that I encounter that they are Your children. As they grow, help them learn what it means to hide their hearts with Yours. Guide them to realize that they are heirs to Your throne and royalty with Christ.

“But to all who did receive Him, He gave them the right to be children of God.” (John 1:12)

In the power of Jesus’ name, Amen.

Good morning, Father.

I love the call You have given me to serve with preschoolers. But sometimes because of their ages or personalities, sharing and getting along is difficult for them. Father, I ask that you create in these children self-discipline. May they acquire a disciplined and prudent life–doing what is fair, right, and just.  (Proverbs 1:3)

In the power of Jesus’ name, Amen.

Good morning, Father.

As I pray for the children I will encounter this week, I ask that You keep each child’s heart soft. Help them to be wise in their ways to forgive as you have forgiven them.

“And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.” Mark 11:25-26

In the power of Jesus’ name, Amen.
