“The path is made in the walking of it.” –Zhuangzi

Prayer

God of tomorrow,

In times that feel so uncertain, we ask you to fill us with the kind of hope that empowers us to blaze trails, rather than dawdle about with ready-made answers. Give us a deeper awareness of your accompanying presence beside us, so we may boldly and faithfully innovate new ways to extend your ministry long into the future. For the sake of those waiting for the good help we can bring, give us courage to trust you and walk forward. And for the sake of those waiting right now, today, may each one of our associates be empowered to blaze our mission’s path forward—one hallway, one room, one step at a time. Amen.

Call to Action

Allow myself five minutes to reconnect with the mission that unites our work together as a ministry. Let the big picture guide my duties and responsibilities throughout the workday.
