We all need to be able to become the person God created us to be. Everyone has
gifts and talents; carers, parents and teachers can help children discover what these
are. It is important to appreciate children’s strengths, acknowledge and help them
deal with their weaknesses. For teachers, it is important to know their own
strengths.
Lord, today I pray that my child/teacher may be encouraged to develop
what they do best and enjoy doing. Help them to use their gifts to lead a fulfilled and
happy life, that will benefit them and be a blessing to others. Amen.
