By Byron Jupiter
Some mornings start with a plan. This one started with a prayer. It is short enough to say before the first call of the day, and it asks for the things the work actually needs: clear sight, a good word, and a steady hand.
Lord, thank You for this morning and the breath to meet it.
Give me clear eyes to see who stands with me and who only stands near me. Let me hold my cards close and my heart open. Where others moved against me, let me move forward without carrying them.
Keep my hands steady in the work, my word good, and my purpose clear. Let me do well by doing good, and let what I build outlast what was aimed at me.
Amen.
