Today in our prayers for the people of Madagascar.

Prayer for Peace

Kathy McAdam

Giver of peace, I praise you for quiet breezes of spirit and the warm sunshine of love. May your cool, refreshing rain bring renewal to my soul.

In thanks I come to you, God. The blessings of my life come from the bounty you have provided. It is when I recognize all that comes from you that I know I am truly loved by you, my God.

Giver of peace, I need the loving, healing spirit that fills my emptiness. I struggle in my relationships with those who surround me, neighbors, friends, and loved ones. I need to find that peaceful spirit that will allow me to value others without judging them.

Guide me to an understanding of your peace and grace, great giver of peace. Amen.
