GOD, FOUNTAIN OF WISDOM AND TOWER OF STRENGTH*

Almighty God, Your help and refuge, fountain of wisdom and tower of strength, assist us and direct us to divine wisdom and power that we may accomplish the task You have given us and whatever we may undertake to do, execute it faithfully and diligently, according to Your will, so that it may be profitable to ourselves as public servants, to the glory of Your Holy Name.

Today, as we celebrate another remarkable milestone in the Province of Aklan where the Honorable Governor Florencio T. Miraflores will once again deliver his State of the Province Address in these halls of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan, may You enlighten and inspire each one of us present here and all the Aklanons especially those who monitor us via live streaming through cable television and live radio coverage to dream of many more successful years aiming for continuous progress of our beloved Province. May everything we do begins with Your inspiration, and continue with Your saving help. Let our work always find its origin in You, and through You reach completion.

As we look back at the accomplishments of the previous years, where every employee and department in provincial government and national government agencies had put their best to deliver the needs of the people, we recognized the fact that without You, Lord we can do nothing. Every accomplishments that contributes to our Province’s success, we owe it to You.

May each one of us, either elected or appointed be always in unison to achieve the goal of giving proactive and responsive service to our fellow Aklanons. By Your Spirit, help us to know what is right and to make us always feel eager in doing Your will.

And finally, Almighty Father, thank You for the chance to work with Your people. Thank You for the chance to serve them in the best way we can. May every employee finds gladness in all its toil and difficulty of every project, its pleasure and success in every award and recognition that we receive, and even in some instance where there is failure and sorrow, may we remain strong and determined to carry the mission and vision by heart.

Amen. /MP
