The Spiritual Side

Today is the last day of school before the kids are out for a week and a half Easter break.  Lord, I pray that they would hear this year, for the first time or the hundredth, what Easter is all about.  I pray that they would be told what is good about Good Friday.  I pray for the adults in the lives of each of these kids at M's school, and for each of my nieces and nephews, to be bold in taking the opportunity to tell your story.  May your story be fresh in each of these little one's hearts this weekend, and may they understand that the Easter break is not just a holiday away from school, but a celebration of how you have redeemed us for yourself.

In the Story

May they understand your story, and that they have a part in it.  May they understand their place, both the smallness and the importance of it.  We are but dust, but we can make a difference.  We matter to you and to your story.
