  Speaker 1: I am Sherry Mackie. It is time for us to
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: go to God in prayer, and as always I ask
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: that you joint along with me in prayer. And as
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: we are in the midst of graduation season, I want
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: to take a moment to pray for our graduates. How
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: gracious and loving Father, we come before you today, filled
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: with gratitude and hope as we lift up this graduating
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: class into your hands. Thank you God for walking with
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: them through every step of their journey so far, the
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: long nights of study, the challenges face, the friendship's made,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: the friendship's lost, and even the knowledge game. Every moment
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: has led to this threshold of new beginnings. Lord, as
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: they graduate a step forward into the next chapter of
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: their lives. Father, right now, in the name of Jesus,
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: we ask for you to go before them and prepare
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: the way. Be their guide when the path is unclear,
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: Be their strength when they face obstacles. Be their peace
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: when fear and uncertainty creep in. Let them remember that
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: they are never alone because You're always right there with them. Lord,
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Give them clarity on their purpose in life and a
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: world full of noise and distraction. Help them to hear
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: you and hear your still small voice calling them to
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: live lives of meaning and service. Whether they pursue further study, Father,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: whether they're entering the workforce or just walking past and
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: they don't know yet, let them do so with integrity,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: with humility, and with courage. God, we pray that you
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: grant them wisdom, wisdom not just to succeed, but to
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: discern what truly matters in life. Help them to be
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: people who build, people who create, people who heal, people
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: who bring light in dark situations. God, let them carry
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: the values of compassion, honesty, and justice wherever they go.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Let them carry the fruit of the spirit. Wherever they go.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Surround them with mentors and friends who encourage and lift
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: them up. When they're attempted to give up, God, send
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: them reminders of how far they've already come in the
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: gifts that you placed inside of them. When they face
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: failure a loss, let them find in You a deeper
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: resilience and a hope that does not fade. Bless the dreams, God,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: but more than that, align their dreams with yours. Let
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: them not chase only success, but significance, not only achievement,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: but impact. Let their lives reflect your goodness and your
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: glory in every place they're sent. And finally, God, we
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: pray that through every season, whether filled with joy or sorrow,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: clarity or doubt, they would know your love, rest in
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: your grace, and walk in your truth. Let them never
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: stray away from who you are. Let their foundation and
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: you be secure. Let their future be bright, not just
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: with opportunity, but with the light of Your presence. God.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: We entrust them to You, O God. They're past their
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: present and their future. Be their firm foundation, their constant companion.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: They're everlasting home in the name of Jesus
