Pumpkin Carving Prayer
Thanks to Jo for sharing this idea!
"I thought I would pass this on to you. We just did this last week
in Sunday School and it worked wonderfully. This is a great way to put a
little Christian in Halloween. The pumpkins turned out really cute! Thanks
for you hard work...Jo"
Dear God,
As I carve my pumpkin help me say this prayer:
Open my mind so I can learn about You;
(Cut the top of the pumpkin)
Take away all my sin and forgive me for the wrong things I do.
(Clean out the inside)
Open my eyes so Your love I will see;
(Cut the eyes out in heart shapes)
I'm so sorry for turning up my nose to all you've given me.
(Cut a nose in the shape of a cross)
Open my ears so your word I will hear.
(Cut the ears shaped like the Bible)-we did rectangles
Open my mouth so I can tell others You're near
(cut the mouth in the shape of a fish)
Let Your light shine in all I say and do! Amen.
(Place a candle inside and light it)
