A Dashboard Prayer
"With care, I take control of this car,
knowing its power to assist my life,
and to endanger me and others.
I give you thanks for the hands which made it,
for the natural resources of your creation
that fuel it,
and for the privilege to travel so freely
in a world where many must walk.
May I never forget the costs of this convenience,
or my responsibility for its use.
May I travel safely this day in your care."
While Traveling By Car
"Vigilant God,
as my body is in motion in this car,
let my heart always be moving toward you.
Focus my attention on the road:
stir me to kindness toward others
and to a spirit of patience in my car,
and in all my movements
through this world.
Help me to remember I have Jesus
as my constant companion on the road."
