A Prayer for Your Industry, Profession, or Company

Our Lord, Jesus Christ, who during Your earthly life shared our toil and dignified the work of our hands: May all who labor as [your profession/industry/company] today cultivate goodness and beauty in the world. May their good work be done well, not to please man, or for mere monetary reward, but diligently in the eyes of God as His workers. Give to each a spirit of cooperation and collaboration so that there may be no strife among them. Grant that all will seek only what is right, working in concord with one another, and working for the good of themselves and their neighbors, near and far—all for Your sake. May they find joy in serving others and in serving You, Lord Jesus, who with the Father and the Holy Spirit live and reign forever, world without end. Amen.[1]
