Prayer for the Work Place
by Cathlyn CartierLord,
Give me wisdom and discernment
Please
Guard
my lips and my tongue,
that I don't speak out of season.
Allow,
me to conduct myself in an honorable fashion,
that my professional ethics are beyond reproach.
Prevent me,
from allowing the frustrations that I feel towards my co-workers to flow over into my work or to color my performance in a negative light.
Maintain
my focus on the light of truth, integrity and honesty.
Remind me,
that thousands of eyes are watching me daily and that what they see in me may be the only witness and testimony of You they ever receive.
I ask this,
not selfishly that I may build myself up,
but I ask for Your will,
that You might receive glory and honor.
