When I Wake Up
Good morning, Lord Jesus. Thank you for the new day. Help me be kind, help me be brave, and help me remember that you are with me. Amen.
FOR THE LITTLEST ONES
Small prayers, in small words, for small hands and small hearts. Read with the children at the table, in the car, at bedtime.
"Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God."
— Mark 10:14 (KJV)
