Prayer for kids

Dear God,

Jesus prayed with loud cries and tears, and You heard Him. So I know it is okay to be loud. It is okay to cry.

Most of the time I say quiet, polite prayers. But tonight I am sad. My friend told me he is moving away in two weeks. It does not feel fair. I want to cry out to You.

Even when I am too sad to find the right words, hear me. You are good, even when things are hard.

Amen.
