Let us put ourselves in the presence of
GOD...
Dear Heavenly Father, We come to You on this
joyous day with our hearts lifted to You. We thank
you for giving us the talents, abilities and self
discipline required for this wonderful
accomplishment. I ask that you energize this
celebration so that each of us feels the significance
of this important day. Lord, we stand here
today filled with gratitude. We are grateful for the
constant support and love of our families. We are
grateful for the lifelong friendships we have
formed, and that have formed us. We are grateful
with the faculty and staff, as well as the
administrators who have taught us, nurtured us,
love us, inspired us to learn and challenged us
along the way. We pray that you will give us
direction, purpose, and perseverance as we enter
the next phase of our lives. Give us clearness of
mind to move forward into the plans and purposes
that You have for us. Bless our life from this day on
with goodness and love. Help us to stay true to our
dreams, to use our gifts wisely, and to walk into
the future with faith, hope, and great love. Let your
hand upon us and bless us. We ask this in the
name of Jesus Christ our Lord, and Savior. Amen
