Heavenly Father,

THANK YOU for new opportunities, new mercies, and Your grace poured out fresh today and each and every day. πŸ™ŒπŸΌ
(Lamentations 3:22-23)

We ask for Your mighty hand of PROTECTION to surround them all, to guard their hearts, minds, and bodies, and to keep them safe in all their coming and going.

Equip them with the COURAGE and CONFIDENCE to face and embrace new challenges head on with a steadfast spirit.

(Proverbs 3:25-26, Ephesians 6:11, Philippians 4:8, 2 Timothy 1:7)

Soften their hearts to have a genuine desire for helping and serving OTHERS, giving them eyes to seek out the needs of those around them rather than focusing solely on themselves.

We thank You for their dedication, their sacrifice, and that you have laid genuine passions on their hearts for pouring into and helping to build up the next generations.
