The Entrepeneur’s Prayer
Heavenly Father
We come to you with deep humility… in realization by your hands…. all things are made possible.
We give thanks for the challenges of our past which give rise to our entrepreneurship and innovation.
Give us clarity today that we might hear from other’s success.
Provide us vision – to see not what is JUST before us but what can be – when we work hard, work smart, and work together
Let us find confidence in rejection; purpose in our failure; patience in our trials;
AND success in our perseverance.
We ask all this in your name.
Amen
W.E. “Bill” Russell, CCE
