Find comfort with this short prayer for guidance at work

A Short Prayer

"Dear Lord, guide my actions and decisions at work today, fill me with wisdom and discernment, Amen."

A Deeper Prayer

Heavenly Father, as I begin this workday, I ask that You grant me guidance and wisdom. Help me to discern what needs to be done and the best way to do it, that I may be a blessing to those around me and bring glory to Your name. May Your presence be with me, leading and directing me in all that I do, and may I be a reflection of Your love and character to my colleagues and all those I interact with.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I trust that God is guiding me in my work?+

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight (Proverbs 3:5-6).

What if I'm unsure about the decisions I'm making at work?+

If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault (James 1:5). Seek His guidance through prayer and fasting.

Can I really find peace and fulfillment in my secular work?+

Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward (Colossians 3:23-24).
