DAY 1

MORNING PRAYER

Wi-fi is a very important aspect of our world. Even though we cannot see wi-fi, it is there to help us with our needs and wants. In a similar way, faith in God is something that we cannot see; however, He is wanting to help us with our needs and wants. Our faith gives us strength in life, and when we look to Jesus as the source of our light, our lives are filled with hope.  

Lord,

In this year, where we focus on Jesus being the light of the world,

help us to feel your presence in our world.

Help us to have faith,

and to build or maintain our faith in you

in a world which often challenges the idea of you.

Bless our school year,

as we embrace Jesus as the light of the world.

Amen
