Today in our prayers for the people of Pakistan.

Prayer for Peace

Robert Wanga

God who has taught us to pray, we now approach your dwelling seeking forgiveness for our failures and omissions. Cause us to envision the coming of your kingdom in our immediate surroundings. Make us alive to the pain and suffering of those without consolation in our world. Let us provide comfort and nurture to those who are ever teary and the hungry, starving masses in our neighborhoods.
We now turn our prayerful gaze to the nation for which we pray today, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. May its residents in their life challenges find you and allow your spirit to draw them into relationships that affirm the worth of all persons. Cause the rich and privileged to empty themselves of selfishness and appropriate their abundant possessions for transformation of the world.
We seek through our prayers that the ministry of intercession be carried to all who now yearn for inner peace—that their transformation might make this world a better place for all to live in. Amen.
