Peace

Prayer for Peace

Prince of Peace,
in a world that seems to have forgotten what peace means,
we turn to you.

Peace in our hearts —
where anxiety and fear have taken up residence.
Peace in our homes —
where tension and misunderstanding breed.
Peace in our communities —
where division runs deep.
Peace among nations —
where pride and power clash.

Let peace begin with me.
Let it start in this moment,
in this breath,
in this quiet turning toward you.

And from here, may it ripple outward.

Amen.
