A couple of months ago, I was asked to pray during a Warrior Leader Course Graduation Ceremony here at Baumholder. I was happy to be a part of this ceremony. I seem to enjoy ceremonies and participating in them. This is the prayer I wrote for the graduation ceremony that day.
Gracious Heavenly Father—
1 Blessed be the Lord, my rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle;
Ps 144:1(ESV)
In this year of the NCO, we thank you for the NCO corps and we honor them even down to the newest Sergeant.
We ask today that you will bless the Graduates of Warrior Leader Course, Class 300 as they lead the next generation of Warriors.
We thank you for those who have taken the time and energy to train these leaders and to prepare them for their responsibilities ahead.
Please bless the proceedings today that you may receive all of the honor and glory.
Amen
