Prayer of an Engineer

Lord Jesus my rock my Foundation

Thank you O Lord Jesus,

For giving me

Talents and skills…

To plan and develop towns and cities;

To design and build dwelling places;

To put up edifices that reflects

Humanity’s artistry.

Thank you, O Lord Jesus,

For giving me the opportunity

To work for the community;

Build houses to shelter families;

Construct roads and highways;

Renovate and restore churches

And other buildings to their

Former beauty and grandeur

I humbly ask you, O Dear Jesus

To help me…

Finish the projects I have started;

Win bids and contracts;

Give my best effort;

And come up with work

That I can proudly offer to you.

I kneel before you to ask humbly

For your blessing and protection.

Bless the project, O Lord;

Bless the site I have chosen;

Bless the machineries and equipment;

Bless the workers and staff.

I humbly implore you…

Give me the grace to aim high

And work hard to achieve my goal;

To be creative and constructive;

To be resourceful and responsible.

Thank you O Lord Jesus,

For sending me

Workers and assistants

Who will ensure

That my projects are safe and sound,

Strong and well-built.

Make me realize that while my life

Is your precious gift to me,

My work and achievements

Are my gifts to you.

You, O Lord Jesus are the rock

And foundation of my life and work.

Amen.
