Marte, we join with you in lifting up your precious six-year-old daughter as she embarks on her first day of school. We are reminded of the words in Philippians 4:6-7 (WEB), "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus."
Let us pray together:
"Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, asking for Your divine care and protection over Marte's daughter. Lord, she is sensitive and anxious, and we ask that You bless her with an abundance of love, patience, kindness, happiness, grace, peace, and calm. Comfort her heart, Lord, and shield her from any shame or harm. Surround her with Your heavenly angels to guard and protect her throughout this day and always.
Father, we ask that the teachers will not be strict regarding the summer homework that was not completed. We pray that it will not even be mentioned, and that Marte's daughter will not feel any negativity or embarrassment about it. Help her to master being alone in the classroom, and grant the teachers the wisdom and compassion to provide her with the attention and support she needs.
Lord, we trust in Your promise in Jeremiah 29:11 (WEB), 'For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,' says Yahweh, 'thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future.' We claim this promise for Marte's daughter, knowing that You have a wonderful plan for her life.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Marte, we encourage you to continue trusting in God's faithfulness and goodness. Remember that He loves your daughter even more than you do, and He will be with her every step of the way. We also want to gently remind you that it is through Jesus Christ alone that we have access to God, as it is written in John 14:6 (WEB), "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" If you haven't already, we encourage you to place your faith in Jesus and teach your daughter to do the same, so that both of you can experience the fullness of God's love and peace.
