An Office Prayer

FATHER,

WE THANK YOU FOR THIS TIME TOGETHER. IN THE PEACE OF THIS SEASON, OUR SPIRITS ARE JOYFUL AND THANKFUL. MAY THE HOPE, PEACE, JOY AND THE LOVE REPRESENTED BY THE BIRTH OF JESUS FILL OUR LIVES AND BECOME PART OF ALL THAT WE SAY AND DO. HELP US TO REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE THE REASON FOR THIS SEASON. MAY WE ALSO REMEMBER OTHERS LESS FORTUNATE THAN US AND FOR THOSE SEPARATED FROM LOVED ONES THIS TIME OF YEAR. PROTECT OUR SOLDIERS AND KEEP THEM SAFE. WE THANK YOU FOR THIS FOOD AND FOR EVERY PERSON THAT GAVE OF THEMSELVES IN PREPARATION OF THIS MEAL. PLEASE BLESS EACH PERSON HERE IN THE NEW YEAR WITH A PEACEFUL LIFE, JOY OF THE SOUL AND HEALTH OF THE BODY. BLESS THIS FOOD, USE IT TO NOURISH OUR BODY AND STRENGTHEN US TO DO YOUR WILL. WE ASK THESE THINGS IN YOUR NAME.

AMEN

This prayer was written for an office party by a friend of mine for a friend of hers. My friend took the time to write out this prayer in order to bless her friend and others at the party. Thank God. This is a touch of ministry and blessing others. Merry Christmas.

This friend is growing in Christ. She is seeking to honor God and live in Christ and the power and love of God. She is seeking to honor her husband, children and their spouses and others that are in her journey. I can tell you, and so can others, that her hope and joy are evident. Not all is right or perfect in her life, but she is alive and helping others become alive.

Sing in your car. Sing out loud. Sing.
