God of Peace,
In the face of holiday upheaval, fill me with peace.
Help me focus on the tasks ahead, the work I must do, the deadlines and preparation I need to pay attention to.
Remind me that you are with me, helping me to use the gifts and skills I have as I learn and grow and move toward the future.
Help me focus in this last week and through my finals.
Remind me that semester break is so close.
Give me strength and perseverance.
Fill me with hope in these challenging days.
Amen.
