Description
Tim Simpson is a member of the group that meets regularly to pray for Business in Bristol on the Upper Reaches barge in Temple Quay. Based on his many years of business experience he has compiled an extensive collection of prayers for workplace topics. Here is one that will strike a chord with many readers: Here Comes That Meeting.
Tim prefaces the prayer by saying that although most work and business meetings are routine, some are momentous, and the run-up to them can be stressful. The heart may sink or nerves may jangle at the prospects of a meeting. Will I get the job or promotion I have longed for? Will our firm win the contract? Will we get the grant funding, new equity or loan we need to keep the business afloat? Will a disciplinary matter be satisfactorily addressed and resolved? Will what’s happened mean that someone is out of a job, maybe even by the end of the meeting? And so on.
