Dear Lord, as we lean upon You for our help, may You calm our fears.
Strengthen us, Dear Lord, for the trials that are sure to come.
Build within us a living Hope which is none other than Yourself.
Make us aware of the pitfalls that are out there for us to avoid.
Knowing as we do the Lord will be by our side.
Carrying us through the mire and the mud of our lives.
Knowing as we do the happiness we seek is from You and only Yourself.
May we be cognizant and mindful of Your blessings.
Giver of Life bless us this day as we work and labor for you.
Bless us, Oh Lord, in whatever it may be to assail us.
May we be strong with fortitude and gratitude of Your grace.
In Jesus' name,
Amen.
