...and wrote on it an inscription,

like the engraving of a signet,

"Holy to the LORD."

                   Exodus 39. 30

(May we write the LORD's name

on whatever we do today,

wherever,

among whomever.

How differently we would approach it

           and do it,

what we would do,

how we would view it,

and how radically distinct

  the process, journey, outcome,

        and my attitude in it.

All is worship.

And God brings His glory to it.)

O LORD,

Before us is what

  we consider a wearisome task,

  another mundane

            same as always day,

or that which is way too big for us.

May we worship You in it

            and through it.

Bring Your glory to it.

There are no small obediences.

There are no insignificant

                acts of faithfulness.

Right where we are today,

   Your deepest purposes

   are continually being fulfilled.

Help us to write Your name

       on the top of our paper.

And inscribe on this day,

    "Holy to the LORD.

     Holy is the LORD."
