Almighty God, the giver of all good things, without whose help all labor is ineffectual, and without whose grace all wisdom is folly; grant, I ask, that in this undertaking your Holy Spirit may not be withheld from me, but that I may promote your glory, and the salvation of myself and others; grant this, O Lord, for the sake of your son Jesus Christ, amen.
(a prayer of Samuel Johnson, from Boswell's Johnson, slightly updated; photo by Zach Camp via unsplash.com)
