My Heavenly Father, I'm praying for children everywhere,
- That they may have parents/guardians who truly love and care for them; who show that love in actions, and in deeds taken on behalf of them...
- That they put them to bed early at night, help them with homework, chastise them gently when needed, read stories to them daily, talk with them daily to show them love, and teach them general things they need to know...
- That they communicate in a positive way with schools and teachers, in an effort to provide academic assistance for them throughout their schooling.
- So that they may grow up to be healthy, well adjusted, happy, productive and knowledgeable human beings in which they can be proud to say 'that's my child.'
- I pray that each child have energetic, academic focused, caring teachers who love children, and the teaching profession, who teach to children's academic strengths, so that they may overcome their academic weaknesses and be proud to say "I taught that child.'
