“Today’s prayer I offer under the shadow of one of my favorite Bible verses, Col 3:23

‘Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.’

Heavenly Father

May this day be a blessing to You, Lord

May this day be a blessing to You.

Guide our thoughts and our words,

Guard our hearts from this world,

May this day be a blessing to You.

In Your Son’s name we pray, Amen.”
