Getting along with others

Dear Lord,

I pray that you would help students learn to get along with others--their roommates, classmates, instructors, and other new people you bring into their path. Let them admire and respect the differences of others. Let the unique colors of each person merge together into beautiful new friendships and relationships that broaden their horizons. Teach them good communication skills, give them a spirit of understanding, patience, tolerance, and forgiveness.

Mark 12:31 Love your neighbor as yourself.

"We could learn a lot from crayons... Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names, and all are different colors, but they all have to live in the same box." - Anonymous
