God,
While those around us are thanking you that it’s Friday,
We are trying not to use your name in vain as we realize,
My Goodness Gracious, It’s Friday Already!
The week has passed.
Sunday looms.
And we’re ready.
Or not.
Either way, this weekend:
Grant us wisdom in deciding what to do and what to leave undone;
Grant us deep knowledge of your grace;
Grant us reminders that it is, ultimately, Your work, and these are, all, Your people.
Grant us rest.
Amen.
