Lord, calm my nerves. Give me a clear mind and honest words. If this is the right role, make it clear. If it isn't, close the door gently and lead me to the one You have for me. Amen.

For confidence rooted in You
For memory of what to say
For favor with the people I meet
For peace with the outcome
