May God your Creator enable you to see
the weight and wonder of His Word.
May the gift of Scripture be a guiding light for you.
As the whole of its story
points to Christ our Lord,
so may your life find its focus
always on Him.
May the wonders of God’s handiwork in Creation
and the longing in your heart for a Creator
serve to reveal His heart to you day by day;
but may these things also always move you
to return more passionately to Scripture
to learn from and walk in His ways.
May the Lord awaken in you
a desire to know the Bible thoroughly
and a longing to be molded by it continually.
May the Lord give you a certainty about its truths
so that you may handle the Word rightly
and walk in the freedom
of the purpose you have found in your Savior.
May your life be ever shaped by the living Word of God.
May the Lord bless you and keep you.
May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you.
May the Lord lift up His countenance to you and give you peace.
