Dear Lord Jesus, we thank you for your love and compassion towards children. We pray that you would help us to never hinder them from coming to you. May we always encourage and guide them towards your Kingdom. We ask for your blessings upon all the children in the world, that they may know your love and grace. May we learn from their innocence and trust in you with childlike faith. We pray this in your holy name, Amen.
