Heavenly Father, we give thanks to You for today and for the beginning of a new week. We ask You to bless this week, to give us strength, wisdom, and peace in our hearts, so that in all our actions we may seek Your will. Guide us on our journey, help us to treat our fellow human beings with love and patience. Give us perseverance in the face of challenges, and show us how we can serve You in our work and ministry, our relationships, and our daily actions. Amen.
