Good Morning, God,
"Mandatory Homework." What will our legislators think of next? Of course, this is only really a new concept for first, second, and third graders. Other grades have always (usually) had homework that counts toward part of a grade. And, one of the reasons for wanting to have mandatory homework for these early primary children is to get parents more involved with their children, both as part of the educational process and just as important family relationships. The bill would also invite community volunteers to work with children who can't, for some reasons, get their homework done at home.
Lord, intentionally or not, all of us are already involved with educating our children. Some of us educate positively with what we do; others of us influence our children negatively. Lord, basically, "living life" is a lot about doing our homework: living out what we learn from home, school and church. The important thing, Lord, is that we are all always teaching and always learning and always acting out what we know. May we learn well and live life rightly.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
