O Gracious and Loving God,
We give thanks to you on this beautiful morning for all that has been accomplished over these many months. As we begin this final day of session, we give thanks for being given the opportunity to serve others.
To care for others, to carry their concerns with our own, is a sacred privilege. To be granted the gift of being engaged in work that can uplift the lives of others is a blessed thing. To be given the responsibility and trust of our neighbors and fellow citizens is an honor never to be taken for granted.
May you bless those who serve others, may you grant them satisfaction in their work, and may you bless all of their worthy endeavors. May this be God’s will. Amen.
