What I’m saying you this morning my friends, even if it falls your lot to be a street sweeper, go on out and sweep streets like Michelangelo painted pictures; sweep streets like Handel and Beethoven composed music; sweep streets like Shakespeare wrote poetry; sweep streets so well that all the host of heaven and earth will have to pause and say, “Here lived a great street sweeper who swept his job well.” If you can’t be a pine on the top of the hill, Be a scrub in the valley…but be the best little scrub on the side of the rill; be a bush if you can’t be a tree. If you can’t be a highway, just be a trail. If you can’t be a sun, be a star; It isn’t by size that you win or you fail … Be the best of whatever you are! And when you do this, when you do this, you’ve mastered the length of life. Martin Luther King

Commissioning Prayer God our Father, as disciples of Jesus, we accept our commission from you to invest our lives in others. Give these workers in your harvest the power, wisdom and courage to boldly live the Kingdom life in all the places of your choosing. May Jesus be seen in their lives and may they always and everywhere model the life of Christ with authenticity and great zeal. Give them eyes to see the path of service you desire for them and ears to hear the cry of the world’s needs that you have equipped them to meet. Father, as your Son modelled for us what it means to be a servant by washing the feet of the disciples, may they exhibit a servant attitude in all they do. May you be their Lord, light, and guardian in the work you call them to. Grant them perseverance when tired, that they would not grow weary in doing well. I commission them into your service, in Jesus’ name. Amen From

Commissioning Prayer Our Father in heaven, may our lives each day bring glory to your name Give us opportunities to extend your kingdom by speaking of Christ. Help us to do your will and work for Christ as our boss. May your kingdom come in our workplaces. Thank you for providing us with our jobs and please give us what we need to do them well. Forgive our sins and help us be patient with our colleagues. Help us not to be shaped by the culture at work. Amen.
