Daily Prayer

I have been afraid of money . . .
afraid that understanding finances

by teaching me to provide for myself.

Grant me the courage to put a price on my work,
the wisdom to govern my finances,
the peace of mind to enjoy prosperity without guilt.

And as You teach me self-sufficiency,
please keep my priorities in check,

that I may spend what I earn in a way that honors
myself, my world, and You.
