Prayer for a High School Graduation

Father, we thank you so much for our time here together:
for all the friends we have made,
for all the days of laughter and fun,
and for all the times of great discovery and learning.

We thank You for all who have given of their energy and skill
so that we can graduate today:
our teachers and mentors,
our family and loved ones.
We thank You for them

and give them all to You in prayer.

As this chapter on our lives closes, so a new one begins.
We present ourselves like an open book before You.
Come and enscribe Your words of life into our lives.
Fill our minds with Your thoughts,
fill our bodies with Your strength,
fill our hearts with Your dreams,
that we might eternally love and serve You
this day and every day.

We ask all this in the glorious name of Jesus
Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit
World without end.
Amen.
