Tooth-brushing Prayers

What better time is there to pray than while brushing your teeth! The tooth-brushing prayers below are short, fun ways to include God at the beginning and end of every day!

Tooth-brushing Prayer for Children

Dear Jesus,
Thank you for my teeth.
Thank you for the food I eat.
Thank you for my family.
Thank you for my friends.
Thank you for everything you give me,
From now until the next time I brush my teeth.
Amen.

The Toothbrush Prayer

OPEN my eyes to see You in everything.
OPEN my ears to hear You speaking to me through other people.
OPEN my heart to care for other people.
OPEN my mind that I may know what You want me to do.
OPEN my will that I make good choices.
AMEN. Count Me In.
(Source: Rev. John Linscott, The Church of Good Shepherd)
