A Prayer for Labor Day
“…We ask God for your peace in our hearts and minds as we discern how we might participate in your work. Equip us to offer our gifts, education, and resources, not for a faster world, but a world that would move according to the rhythm of your heart.
Lord teach us, the pace of Christ.

We pray for our neighbors that serve at nearby restaurants and gas pumps, our neighbors whom we pass on the lanes of local highways and the aisles of local grocery stores and streets of food deserts. We pray that we might slow down enough to say, ‘Good morning’ and ‘Thank you.’

Lord, help us to pause and see each person as a beloved child of God, all kinds, colors, shapes, and abilities. Teach us how to preach against injustice, protest evil, protect the earth, and pray for the infilling of your Guiding Light that alerts us when we are inching ahead of your timing…”

Associate Chaplain, Davidson College
