The Year of Perfect Attendance

 

A mother prayed the following words each day for her school-aged boys as they got on the school bus. Her boys never took a day off!

 

Thank You so much, divine Love, for filling all space. Your harmonious kingdom is everywhere and always present, and these boys (and girls) 'live and move and have their being there' (Acts 17:28). In this perfect creation, You make all and make it good. There is nothing that can cause harm, so Your children can never be exposed to anything but good. I recognise Your allness, dear God, and Your goodness filling this neighbourhood, the school, the community, and the world. I acknowledge You as the source of all health and thank You for expressing this health and well-being throughout Your entire creation, including these boys and girls. I know that they are protected and safe, surrounded by all-powerful Love.
