Verse: Whatever your task, work heartily, as serving the Lord and not men. (Colossians 3:23)

Lord God, You have given me a new day in which to serve You. Preserve me from sin, selfishness, and discouragement.

Bless the work of this day: my home, my labour, my studies, my errands, and all the duties that may seem small in the sight of the world but are known to You.

Make me diligent, honest, and kind. Keep me faithful in ordinary things, and let nothing separate me from Your love.

Heavenly Father, I thank You for the mercies of this day. Receive my work, my prayers, my failures, and my desires to serve You more faithfully.

Where I have sinned, forgive me. Where I have done good, purify it. Where I am tired or troubled, give me peace.

As night draws in, grant restful sleep to me and to all whom I love, and keep us safe beneath Your providence.

St Edward the Confessor, obtain for us peace, reverence, and fidelity in the duties of our life.
