As our children return to school, one of the greatest gifts we can give them is the covering of prayer. When we lift them up to God, we invite His wisdom to guide their decisions, His peace to calm their hearts, His protection to surround them, and His strength to help them face each new day with confidence. Let us also pray for the teachers, administrators, and school staff who faithfully serve them each day—that God would grant them wisdom, patience, compassion, and strength as they nurture, teach, and protect the students entrusted to their care. Together, let us trust the Lord to lead every classroom and every heart throughout this school year. “The Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.” — Psalm 121:8
