Teaching Nehemiah prays at the palace window

When something makes us very sad, we can take that sadness straight to God in a prayer.

  • When something makes you really sad, what do you usually do first?
  • Nehemiah cried, and then he prayed. Do you think it's okay to do both? Why?
  • Is there someone or something you would like to pray about right now, like Nehemiah did?
