Most Reverend Richard J. Sklba 

God of the Universe, Lord of all time and space,
Your almighty Word leapt down from the farthest starry heavens 
to save us from slavery in Egypt
and to fashion us into a holy people of truth and justice.
The finger of your almighty power casts out evil
and restores order to the jumbled chaos of this fragile world.
Your Incarnate Word enters everything human,
speaking parables of comfort to the needy and those held captive by fear
and inviting disciples to proclaim good news everywhere.

Bless again this day the mysterious computer 
which awaits your power and my human effort.
Grant wisdom, knowledge and a clear memory to my mind 
as I sit before this new creature of your infinite power.
Bless my heart with endless patience whenever needed.
Guide my hands that I may be your faithful servant in every key I press.
Enable my limited efforts to bring glory to your Name 
and blessings to your people everywhere.
Delete me not from your Kingdom 
and save me from all fear and from all error of sin and ignorance.

I whisper this prayer, 
mindful of the needs of all with whom and for whom I work,
through the power of your Word and the life-giving energy of your Spirit.
Amen.
