Like most people, I can’t ever remember a back to school year quite like this one.
There are always concerns for which classes to take, what clubs or sports to be part of, along with concerns over peer pressure, cyberbullying and school violence, but add to that this year with a pandemic still looming, the choice of whether to return virtually or in-person and all the questions and concerns that brings into play. Every family needs to be able to decide what is best for them, but I think most of us can agree that it is a good time to pray for students, teachers, administrations, and let’s add parents to that list as well. Here is a great promise from scripture to hold near and dear:
(scripture of the week)
“do not fear, for I am with you,
do not be afraid, for I am your God;
I will strengthen you, I will help you,
I will uphold you with my victorious right hand” (Isaiah 41:10)
(prayer for the week)
Lord, we lift up in prayer students, parents, teachers, administrators as they begin school whether in-person or online. We pray for your blessing and protection and the ability to learn amid all the other concerns. May your peace and love and strength and wisdom be with us all, amen.
Have a blessed week!—Pastor TJ
(quote of the week)
There are good ships and wood ships,
Ships that sail the sea,
But the best ships are friendships,
And may they always be! Irish Proverb
