Seems appropriate that we can add hard work and study to a virtuous, principled life prayer... the only thing we can't really claim is the Franciscan vow of 'poverty, chastity, and obedience', especially if we're studying for a certification that will allow us to earn $120K/yearly and above.

Prayer to St. FrancisLord, make me an instrument of Your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow
love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where
there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; where there is
sadness, joy.O, Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to
console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love; For it
is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; it is
in dying that we are born again to eternal life; it is in studying that we
pass certification testsChuck
