Chaplain Margaret Grun Kibben
The Earth belongs to You, O Lord, and the fullness thereof. Therefore, let the fullness of this day remain in Your care and keeping.
May everything that comes to our minds be filled with Your wisdom and discernment. Let every sentiment that passes through our souls reflect the fullness of Your compassion and mercy.
In all that we do or say today may our words and actions be fully laden with Your message of love and grace for Your people.
We lift up our heads, our hands, and our hearts to seek Your face. We lift up our heads, our hands, and our hearts to You, O God, the king of glory, that You would enter in.
May Your strength and might lead us in the way we should go, and may You be glorified in all that we accomplish.
In Your sovereign name, we pray. Amen.
