Chaplain Margaret Grun Kibben
Father of lights, every good and perfect gift comes from You. All that we have, our life and our loved ones, our talents and the stewardship of them, our desires and their enjoyment, have all come from Your generous hand. We lack nothing.
Redeem us from the darkness in our hearts which shades us from seeing the revelations of Your grace. Save us from the fickleness of our faith which prevents us from appreciating Your divine design for our lives.
There is no variation or shadow cast by the perfect plan You reveal to us in the mercies of this day and every day. In You we receive everything.
Shine the light of Your salvation on each one of us, on this Nation, and on our world, that we would desire nothing more than to give our life, to use our talents, and to show our love to You for Your glory and the coming of Your kingdom. For You deserve the praise for all things.
In Your sovereign name, we pray. Amen.
