Editor’s note: Anna has been treated for cancer this year. Pray for her to recover from surgery and the effects of chemo. Her latest tests showed that all the cancer has been killed and her lymph nodes are clear. Praise God! She continues to serve God as a pastor’s wife at Grace Church Holt, Michigan. Here is her prayer for her children as they go back to school.
HOLT – Father, thank You for these children that You have entrusted to me. As they prepare to return to school, would You prepare the kids and their teachers for this school year, that they would work well together and encourage each other through the year. I pray that they will continue to grow in and be known for love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
Let their friendships be glorifying to You - whether they are mutually encouraging Christian friendships or ones where they can share the hope of salvation. Please remind them that You go with them, before them, beside them, and behind them. Would you also remind me that You love them more than I ever could and that Your plans are for their good and Your Glory.
