Since it is Your will that we enter into it, please, we pray, help us to follow the words of Christ and use this day to grow closer to You, and since we cannot possibly do this on our own, please guide us this day with the Holy Spirit.
Please protect us this day as we go about our business. Please share our love with our beloved family and friends who are no longer with us - may Your light perpetual shine upon them. Please help us to keep You in our hearts this day, and please keep us in Your loving hands.
In Jesus name we pray, Amen.
