Good morning, dear Jesus,

Thank You for this brand-new day! Thank You for the sunshine, the fresh air, and the chance to learn and grow. Before I start my day, I want to invite You into my heart and my mind. Please guide me to be kind, patient, and a good helper to others today.

Help me to listen well to my teachers and try my best in all my work. Even when things are hard, remind me that I can always ask You for help and that You are with me in everything I do.

Please bless my friends, my classmates, and my teachers. Help us to have fun learning together and to treat each other with love and respect. Let our classroom be filled with peace and joy today.

If I feel nervous or unsure, please fill me with Your courage and remind me that I am never alone because You are right here beside me. Help me to shine Your light wherever I go, spreading kindness and love to everyone I meet.

Lord, I also pray for my family. Bless them as they work and take care of us. Thank You for their love and support, and please keep them safe throughout the day.

As I go out into the world today, help me to make good choices, to remember to say “please” and “thank you,” and to share Your love with everyone I see. Thank You for Your never-ending love and care for me.

In Jesus’ name, I pray,
Amen.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.”
