Learn student prayer for back-to-school protection

The following story has been circulating the social networks for a long time: in Japan, the only professional who does not need to bow before the emperor is the teacher, because according to the Japanese, in a land where there are no teachers there can be no emperors.

Despite being beautiful, the story is not true. All Japanese, of whatever profession, have to bow before their emperor. Even President Obama bowed to the Japanese emperor as a sign of respect.

But there is a truth to this story that no one can deny. There would not be an emperor, president, doctor, astronaut, knowledge and experience of school life without a teacher.

At the beginning of the school year when thousands of students return to classes, there is a great expectation to meet the new school, friends and teachers or anxiety to meet the “old class“ of the school.

The student will find new people to relate to and learn new social rules. A new family? Almost. The student will find new “brothers and cousins” in their friendships. There will be many “uncles and aunts”, also known as teachers, who always draw attention, teach, make people think and show new perspectives on the world.

It’s okay that going back to school means the end of vacation, but student life is great.

The basis of our character comes from our parents and schooling. Our professional future starts at school, acquiring knowledge and shaping our personality.

Students and teachers make an explosive combination of excitement, knowledge and dignity.

I wish all students a great back to school with a prayer.

back to school prayer

Lord, thank you for another year of studies, vacations, rest and care you had with me. For moments of fun, joy and relaxation.

Dear Father, now I start another year of studies, tasks, work and tests. Come with me to classes, keep me safe at any given moment, may your good hand always be on me, giving me security every step, every moment.

I also need wisdom, because sometimes I don’t quite understand a subject, I get worried in times of tests, I get agitated when I have many things to do. Come with provisions on my life, giving your peace. You also promised to give wisdom to those who ask you, I need it, because I am your dear son, and for your children you always have the best.

Now, one more thing, don’t let me fall into temptation, I want to be faithful to what I learn in your word, and not to queue, not to be influenced by friends to do anything that displeases your heart.
