Beginning Ministry: As I begin this day's new tasks...

The below prayer written by Patricia Leonard-Pasley


May you be the God I serve today.
Let me follow no tempting other.
May I see your face revealed
in each sister and each brother.

Fill my words with wisdom.
Let my mouth sing out your praise.
Let my heart compose this love song:

Lord, be with me all my days.
Surround me with your blessing
as I begin this day's new tasks.
Touch me with your fire.

Love me.
Know me.
Move me.
This, O Lord, is all I ask.

Amen.
