A Child's Prayer

There is nothing sweeter or more precious than to hear a child's prayer. It is amazing to see how beautiful and loving their sweet little spirits are. I am so thankful that each day I have the opportunity to hear my little one's pray.
I am reminded of one of my students in San Diego. He was quite a challenge. He was my size and could be quite aggressive at times but other times was so much fun. I would talk to his mom daily when when she picked him up. She told me one day that he included me in his prayers. It was such a sweet moment. Here is a child that had so many challenges going his way. Limited in his language to say the least but he had remembered me! Sometimes I think we learn so much more from children than they learn from us.

I couldn't agree with you more. :) I feel that way a lot...Chandler told the teacher's aid in his class that he prayed for her while she was out with the flu, she thought that was the sweetest thing in the whole world. Sweet little kiddos.
