~ Stewardship Prayer ~

Loving God, I come to You in thanksgiving, knowing that all I am and all that I have is a gift from you. In faith and love, help me to do Your will.

I am listening, Lord God. Speak Your words into the depth of my soul, that I may hear you clearly.

I offer to You this day all the facets of my life, whether it be at home, at work, or at school - to be patient, to be merciful, to be generous, to be holy.

Give me the wisdom and insight to understand Your will for me and the fervor to carry out my good intentions.

I offer my gifts of time, talent and possessions to You as a true act of faith, to reflect my love for You and my neighbor.

Help me to reach out to others as You my God have reached out to me.

~ Amen ~
