We pause in quiet reflection to offer this prayer for a peaceful
world. In our individual and personal ways, we call upon the
Holy One who sustains our lives and who inspires us to live
with compassion and kindness and peace. We ask for daily
guidance in all of our personal relationships; in our work and
play, and in our community involvement that we might model
the possibilities of peace in everything we say and in
everything we do. We pray for wisdom and compassion within
the hearts and minds of all world leaders who have the power
and the responsibility of making decisions that impact the
presence of peace. We pray for courage, dedication, and
integrity within the spirits of all those who work for peace
around the world. We pray for all those who harbor thoughts
and feelings of hatred, violence, and greed that their hearts
and minds and souls will be transformed into Your likeness
of compassion and kindness. We are thankful for Your
presence within our lives and ask for Your blessing as we try to
live peaceful lives and seek ways for all people to live in
harmony and peace.
