Silent Prayer Reflection
As you gather with your group, pause for a moment of silence, asking God to prepare your heart to pray.
Praise God, Our Friend
The Lord would speak to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend. Exodus 33:11
Holy God, high and exalted-You are the creator of all things. We give You praise for humbling Yourself to speak with Moses, and now with us, as a friend. Would every person in our school community experience friendship with You.
Pray for Hearts Encouraged by Healthy Friendships
One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. Proverbs 18:24
God, as new interpersonal circles are created at school, may students be discerning in choosing friends. May close, healthy connections be made in which students stand up for one another and encourage each other, drawing their peers to Jesus. We are expectant to see the fruit of students learning how to become reliable friends in the new relationships that You are creating this year. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
