Punctuality Prayer

Dear Jesus,

We praise you for your goodness and mercy and thank you for the example of punctuality in your life. We remember how you were conscious of the time schedule that God had in mind for you. Help us to embrace our roles as your servants here on Earth and be all that we can be. Remind us that it is important to be at the right place at the right time because our tardiness has an impact on others. May we learn to prepare for unexpected delays and to do our work ahead of time rather than waiting to the last minute. Teach us to stick to the schedule that we or others have prepared for us and avoid the trap of “just one more”. Guide us as we plan our day to keep you first in our thoughts and actions. Help us to act in all things in harmony with the will of the Father.

Amen.
