Week of Sept 8
Prayers FOR students – Back to School
I pray for:
Strength - that God gives them the strength to do what they need to do each day.
Courage - that they will be brave as they face the challenges that are before them.
Peace - that their hearts will be calm and peaceful as they go through their day and in their sleep at night.
Provision - asking God to provide for all that they need - for stamina, spirit, and finances - for each day.
Direction - that they will be led to embrace what is good and right.
Protection - that God keeps them safe in this increasingly unsafe world and protects them from harm and wickedness.
Joy - that God fills them with the kind of bliss joy that can only come from the Divine.
Compassion - that they will show compassion on those in need and who have less than they do
Justice - to give them a sense of justice to stand up for what is right and to defend the weak.
Wisdom - that they will grow in knowledge and understanding.
Hope - to give them the hope that comes from above - the kind that far exceeds what we have in the here and now.
Love - that our children are filled with the love of God. That they will know how deeply they are loved, and that love will overflow onto others.
