Universal Children's Day Prayers: Vimukti Pothnal
Heaving Father, please awaken in us a
sense of universal responsibility towards children. May we
collectively welcome children into our lives, learning from them as
we serve them, and may our leaders teach and guide their
communities, businesses and countries with the needs of children
foremost in their plans; May power be used with gentleness and
kindness. Please unite the world community in efforts to give
children status and respect. Bless our global efforts to end the
violence and cruelty inflicted upon your children; May the world see
your likeness and image in every child. Amen.
-
Pray for children living in
poverty to be blessed with caring adults to instruct and guide
them in life.
-
Pray that governments and
non-governmental organizations work together effectively to
create laws, policies and programs to improve the lives of
children.

Pray for an end to child marriage,
child abuse and child labor.
Psalm 127:3 (NIV)
Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from
him
