Hi, friend!
What a crazy time, right? But also an amazing opportunity for parents and grandparents (in person or on Facetime, WhatsApp, or Zoom)!
With all this extra time with your kids and grandkids, you might be looking for ways to encourage their Spiritual Formation.
I want to come alongside you and offer some ideas and resources. Later this week, on my website on the Free Resources page, I’ll have some printable fun for you to use with your kiddos. In the meantime, how about an idea for a prayer that affirms God’s presence in their lives while helping them get the wiggles out?

God created our bodies, and we can use them in communicating with Him and praising Him. Here’s a simple prayer, especially for the kinesthetic learner who craves movement.
Here's a simple prayer, especially for the kinesthetic learner who craves movement. Share on XTake in a deep breath, and then another.
God,
You reign over everything
(move your hands from your sides up to the sky)
above
(swirl your hands in the air)
and below;
(bend over and touch your toes)
everything inside
(stack your hands on your heart)
and everything outside.
(extend your arms and twist from left to right, pointing at various items as you turn)
I praise You!
(stretch your neck as you look up and reach for the sky)
I love You!
(draw a heart in the air with your hands)
Amen.
(clap your hands)
Take in a deep breath, and then another.
By the way, I enjoy this prayer exercise as well. Reminders are always a good thing.
Do you have a faith-building idea you can pass along to us in the comments?
