Prayer

In our prayer time, we are going to thank God for what we discussed in the SuperVerse activity. All of creation—what we can see with our eyes, and even what we cannot see—exists because of God. 

As God’s children, we should always have a heart of thanksgiving for the many things He gives us! As Paul said in Acts 17:25, God Himself gives life and breath to everything, and He satisfies every need. All our needs are taken care of by our generous and loving heavenly Father. 

I would like you to close your eyes and bow your heads. As you breathe, silently thank God for the breath He fills your lungs with every second of the day. Children silently pray.

As you continue to bow your heads, think of all the activities you do each day, how you can think and move and play and interact with your family and friends. Think about your hands, your feet, and your voice that He has given you to praise and serve Him and to serve others. Children silently pray.    

Finally, think of all the things that God provides each day. Thank Him for supplying your needs.   Children silently pray.

Close in prayer: Thank You Almighty Creator and sustainer of all life. Thank You for giving us eyes that can see, ears that can hear, hands that can touch, feet that can walk, lungs that can breathe, a heart that can beat, a mind that can think, and a spirit that can know You! Thank You for giving us the ability and privilege to serve You and other people. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.
