For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God. Romans 8:14
“Children bring into our midst the very spirit of God…Children are a means of grace, for the spirit of God reveals itself to us through them.”1 Think about all the deep questions that children ask, usually right at bedtime. Children have a deep connection to God and are often willing to share it with us. What a gift! Pray today this prayer written by a young child:
“This is a prayer to someone who knows how to help and I am talking to you. All I need to say is thank you for friends and family. They give us love and that is like God giving us love. But what I am aiming at is anti-bullying, and all I want is for people to be friends. Thanks for listening and please think about what I have said. Amen.”2
