Christmas break came and went way too quickly this year. On January 2, Kyle was out the door to school at 5:45 am to start the day with a baseball workout, and then returned home at 4:30 pm after a second workout. School came too early in more than one way.
I'm praying that today is filled with joy as Kyle attends school. Though he is grumbling at the schedule that comes with being back to school (especially with his college aged sister still hanging out for another week and is sleeping in), I am hoping that God does a change in his heart and that he finds an unusual excitement as he gets back into the swing of things.
I want my kids to find a love for learning, and have something spark a great interest that may even lead them into the future God has planned just for them. Learning, wisdom, and a good education can bring a lot of work, but it can also bring abundant joy.
May it be so today...even though it means our Christmas break has come to an end.
Lord, your wisdom is of greatest worth, and I pray that my kids will always grow in the knowledge of you. At the same time, may they find great joy in gaining knowledge at school, and in their reading, writing, history class, and even math. May they find classes that ignite their passion for learning, and teachers that encourage them to strive better and deeper in their classes. Today, Kyle will need strength to get back into the swing of routine. Lord, be with Kyle in every moment, reminding him that you are God, and you have made him for this day, and this day for him! Thank you, dear Father.
