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. Teach me how to pray for these children.

Father, last week I prayed that these young children would begin to understand the difference between right and wrong, good and bad, and yes and no. The concept of sin is difficult for children this age to grasp as they are so literal in their thinking. I am praying that these children will be caught when guilty–whether it be an innocent impulse of taking gum when leaving the checkout counter with mom or slipping an awesome piece of Lego in a pocket upon leaving the classroom. My desire is that children be caught and lovingly disciplined in those teachable moments so that they learn that You desire honesty as they grow. Help them to grow as Jesus grew.

“It was good for me to be afflicted so that I could learn Your statutes.” (Psalm 119:71, HCSB)

Father, as I think about these young children, the concept of sin is hard to grasp. As their teacher, help me to teach them the difference between right and wrong, good and bad, and yes and no. Life scenarios involve choices. I want these preschoolers to develop hearts and minds that will choose Your best and say no to sin. I want them to choose Jesus, Your Son, for life.

Father, it is my heart’s desire that these preschoolers are kept safe. Remind me that there is a reason that BBC has a security plan and I need to follow it, even if I am friends with the parents of my children. Circumstances can happen unaware. I am asking you to protect and place a hedge around these children from evil situations, friends that are not good for them, and their physical protection as they come and go on this property. Thank You for being: Lord who is there.

“Therefore, this is what I will do: I will block her way with thorns; I will enclose her with a wall, so that she cannot find her paths.” (Hosea 2:6, HCSB)

Father, help me to be mindful to pray for the spiritual condition of the preschoolers that I serve for You. It is of value that they see You modeled in me and others daily. My heart’s desire is that they know Christ as their Savior early in life. Protect them from the enemy and grow in them a heart for You.

“God, You are my God; I eagerly seek You. I thirst for You: my body faints for You in a land that is dry, desolate, and without water.” (Psalm 63:1, HCSB)
