Prayer

Jesus taught us to pray about our work and our hearts' true allegiances, as in Matthew 6:33.

Father, I confess that I often treat my business like it belongs to me, when everything I have is a gift from Your hand. I'm tempted to chase money, to cut corners, to compromise my integrity for a bigger deal. Help me see my work as worship and my workplace as sacred ground where I represent You. Give me the courage to be excellent without being greedy, and faithful without being fearful. Make my business a testimony to Your character, not a monument to my own ambition. In Jesus' name, Amen.
