Every morning before school, the boys and I begin our day with a short prayer, and a look at a specific Scripture passage. (We look at one passage per week, and complete different learning activities each day to help us memorize the passage and understand its meaning.)
First we light a candle, then we look at the passage, and finally we pull a small stone out of a bag to lay next to the candle, before we say our prayer for the day. Sometimes, instead of a spoken prayer, we listen to and/or sing a worship song.
There are four rocks in our prayer bag: "believe", "hope", "love" and "faith". This morning, Alex spontaneously created a new one, by taping a piece of paper to a rock. His paper read "Awesome God"!
