Parents Who Pray 8/22/2024

 Good Morning, 

This day began with prayer and a hot cup of Door County Chocolate Cherry Coffee. It is time to write. 

Colossians 4:2 Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving.

Within a few days most children will be returning to school if they haven't already crossed the threshold of their school. It's that time of year when clothes are evaluated to see if they still fit. Some new clothing might be purchased. School supplies are purchased and schedules are adjusted to have the school line up with the family needs. 

One of the first things that parents should  be doing is praying for the children, praying for the teachers, and praying for the school administration. Before one pencil is sharpened the parents of the students should start praying.

Too many schools will see some type of violence within their walls. Too many children will attend on an empty stomach. Too many students will not have the correct attitude to learn. Too many temptations for evil rest within the walls of the school. 

I for one have a few children living in our neighborhood. I have started praying for them and this new school year. I will pray for the bus drivers who pick up and return the kids in our area to home on a daily basis. 

Don't the kids deserve our best?

Marty
