BACKPACK PRAYER
Today's reading: 1 Chronicles 5-9

Upon reading the genealogies in my Bible this morning, I realized I had yet to share our 'backpack prayer' for this school year.

"The children of your people will live in security." Psalm 102:28 NLT

I've written it down and will place this verse inside my boy's backpack as he heads out the door this morning.

He'll have it with him every day of this school year.

He'll have it prayed over him each day from the little spot I call my prayer chair.

He'll have a mom who places thoughts of unease and worry into its promise.

He'll be cared for by our Creator, our Sustainer, our Deliverer, our Redeemer.

He'll be watched over by One who sees all.

He'll be protected by the God of his heart, by the God of my heart, by the God who loves him even more than I can.

Okay, so maybe the backpack prayer is more for this momma's heart than it is for him--but that's all right.
