Today in our prayers for the people of Belize.

Prayer for Peace

Charles Kornman

Merciful and healing God,

We hold our hands up.
They are so full of things.
We need to turn loose so, so much.

We open our hands.
How difficult it is to let go
To forget the past
To press forward.

Lord, fill our hands with love,
So that in the day of judgment
When we hold our hands out to you
They will be calloused with good deeds
Fill our hands with love so we will be able to touch and share love in that touching

Freya still love, no, holding back.

Prayers to love without embarrassment.
Prayers to love until barriers.
That separate us are gone.

When we touch, may those whom we touch
No, they’ve been touched by God.

God, love me,
Talk to me,
Look at me,
Touch me.

Let me be free.
To love you,
To talk to you,
To look at you,
To touch you.

I believe that this is
What Jesus did and was in his living.

If it is, then it is what I want.
I want to be like him. Amen.
