A Prayer About Work

A prayer about Work

When I wonder how I can glorify God whether I work or stay at home

Heavenly Father,

Being a woman is challenging, whether or not I work outside the home. Sometimes the tasks seem unending and thankless, and I grow weary. Help me to remember that my work is anchored in your character. You are a God of excellence and commitment, so I want to exhibit those same qualities in whatever job you’ve called me to. Even if no one else sees what I do, I want to work to the best of my ability, demonstrating creativity, responsibility, and loving care. I’m so thankful for the blessing of my family, and I know that you have placed me here for this stage of my life. Whether I’m at work or at home, help me to take the opportunity to demonstrate your standard of excellence and commitment to those around me. May my family see and be encouraged by my efforts to support them and glorify you.

Whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father. Colossians 3:17
