Heavenly Father,
As I wake up today may you grant me
eyes to see as you see.
May I see children that are
treasures from you on loan to me.
May I handle their tender hearts
with gentle care.
May I smile at their mistakes, laugh
at their jokes,
Cry with their tears, and hug their
fears.
May the words that I speak build
them up and not tear them down.
May my touch declare Your love.
Help me to Choose joy and not
criticism,
Peace not strife.
Today may I teach children and not
curriculum.
Seek the completion of your will
and not mine.
Seek the transforming of their
minds not only the filling.
Seek heart connection and not
simply knowledge retention.
May all that I teach and all that
they learn be single in purpose--
To impart a love and passion for
You.
May we do our best in all things
not for our own pride but for Your Glory.
Tonight as I tuck them in,
May I know that as I have required
their best, I have given mine.
I am so grateful for, yet humbled by
the responsibility entrusted to me.
By the constant filling of your
Holy Spirit,
May I be worthy of the calling you
have placed upon me.
