A Prayer for a new semester

Lord, as we prepare for the this new semester, make us ready, 

attentive and available to hear you.

Thank You for the gift of being able to rise each day with the assurance that 

You walk through it with us.

Thank You for the gifts of creativity and uniqueness, 

and the energy to put them to good use.

May all that we are today, all that we try to do today, may all our

encounters, reflections, even the frustrations and failings all be placed in

your hands. We thank you, Lord. Amen
