Read: “Why people can’t rest” in the Theology of Work project
Lord, help me to walk with you and to see the world through your eyes. Help me perceive where you are at work redeeming, reconciling and restoring the world. Help me recognize the soul inside every person I meet. Help me honor and respect your image as reflected in the eyes of every employee. Help me support and enable the whole lives of my colleagues. And help me to build corporate systems and employment practices predicated on the reality that business truly is holy ground. Amen.
