Monday Morning Prayers

Before the Workday

Lord Jesus, as I begin this day of work, I acknowledge that it belongs to You. Help me to work with excellence, integrity, and love. Let my labor be an act of worship. Give me wisdom in decisions, patience in difficulties, and grace toward those I work with. May my life point others to You. Amen.

During a Difficult Moment

Father, this situation feels overwhelming. Remind me that You see my work and You care. Give me the strength to persevere, the wisdom to respond well, and the grace to trust You with outcomes beyond my control. Help me to honor You even when it's hard. Amen.

At the End of the Day

Gracious God, thank You for this day's work. I release it into Your hands—both successes and failures. Remind me that my labor in You is not in vain. Help me to rest well, trusting that You are sovereign over all. Amen.
