Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift and purpose of this business trip. Go before us and remain beside us. Bless the coworkers, clients, drivers, hotel staff, and everyone supporting the journey. Give each person alertness, skill, patience, and sound judgment.

When plans change, replace anger with patience; when fear rises, steady the heart; when help is needed, lead us to trustworthy people.
