Good morning, Father.

During 2016 help me to be faithful in my prayer walk. It is most important that we who serve preschoolers remember to pray for the next generation. Lord, I remember how quickly preschoolers grow, especially their feet! They need new shoes for every season, it seems like. As these boys and girls continue to grow, I pray that You will direct their steps. Help them to stand. Teach them to walk in and on the right path in life. Protect them from stumbling.

“My steps are on Your paths; my feet have not slipped.” (Psalm 17:5, HCSB)

Good morning, Father.

During 2016 help me to be faithful in my prayer walk. It is most important that we who serve preschoolers remember to pray for the next generation. Father, our kids in preschool are growing physically, mentally, emotionally, socially, and spiritually. I pray that as they grow,  they would not walk in the step with the wicked nor stand in the way of sinners. I pray that they would find wise, godly companions along life’s journey, even at an early age. Show me how to foster such growth in the children You have entrusted to my care.

“How happy is the man who does not follow the advice of the wicked, or take the path of sinners, or join a group of mockers!” (Psalm 1:1, HCSB)

Father, our kids in preschool are busy. Their hands are everywhere–on blocks, play dishes, dolls, dress-up clothing, crayons, legos, toys, puzzles, and sometimes each other. Help me to instruct children positively when hands are idle, not on task, or where they shouldn’t be. Help the girls and boys learn to be diligent in their work and respectful of their friends. Lord, bless, confirm, and establish the work of their hands.

“Idle hands make one poor, but diligent hands bring riches. The son who gathers during summer is prudent; the son who sleeps during harvest is disgraceful.” (Proverbs 10:4-5, HCSB)

Father, I desire to pray for the preschoolers I encounter as we continue to experience promotion in all areas of Preschool at BBC. Father, I know that things are not settled yet with promotion. Parents are running late; kids may be in the wrong rooms; and there is a lot of crying, clinging to parents, and insecurity. Help the children to feel loved, safe, and, most of all, happy to be at church. Give the teachers an extra measure of grace during these times. Prompt the parents to be on time as they drop off as well as pick up their preschoolers. No child likes to be the one arriving late or the last one to be picked up. Timeliness is how to begin this year. Thank You, Lord, for Your help.

“For the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding.”

Father, I desire to pray for the preschoolers I encounter as we experience Promotion Day in all areas of preschool at BBC. Help me be a positive influence in these lives that do matter to You. Help me to be a good listener, to be a voice of encouragement, and to always share Your truth in ways that their age group will understand. May there be a quick bond between me and the children, as well as with their parents. I desire that my influence and example bring workers into Your field. Thank You for the honor of serving in preschool.
