A little different kind of post from us this morning. š„¹
Today is the first day of school for our boys! This year we made the decision to enroll them here in Chillicothe at RCCA, and I think itās safe to say there were lots of feelings this morning⦠from me probably more than them. They were excited if you canāt tell! š
As everyone is settling into a new school year, we just wanted to take a minute to pray over all of our kids and the people who will be pouring into them this year.
Lord, we ask that You protect our children as they walk into their schools each day. Help them be kind, brave, compassionate and a light to the people around them. Give them confidence when things are hard, good friends to walk beside them, and help them grow into exactly who Youāve created them to be.
Lord, we pray for the teachers, administrators, paraprofessionals, counselors, bus drivers, custodians, cafeteria workers, nurses, secretaries, coaches and every single person who has a hand in caring for our kids throughout their day. Give them patience on the hard days, encouragement when they need it, and remind them that the work theyāre doing matters. š¤
It is in your name, Yeshua, Christ Jesus we pray. Amen.
Now, because I KNOW Iām not the only one with a camera roll full of first-day pictures⦠š
Share your kiddosā first day of school pictures with us in the comments! While youāre there, leave a prayer for your child, their teachers, their school or this school year!
Iād love to see this comment section filled with our kidsā smiling faces and prayers covering them as they head into a brand new year. šš¼šš¤šŖ©
