A Back to School Prayer
-
August 6, 2024Dear Lord,
As our students begin a new school year, I pray that you will keep them in your care.
Send your Spirit to open their minds to all that is true and beautiful and good
Help them to see the gifts and talents you have given them and to use them well.
Help them to grow in knowledge and wisdom.
Help them to be kind to others and lead others to be kind to them.
Give their teachers patience and understanding and help them teach what is just and true.
Send your angels to guide and guard our children and to keep them from all harm.
Open their young hearts to your presence and enfold them in your peace and protection.
Hold them in the palm of your hand and bring them home safely at day’s end.
Amen.
