Today in our prayers for the people of Togo.

Prayer for Peace

Hilda F. Deem

God of all life, we praise you. We praise all that you are, have been, and will always be. Please open our eyes to see the world around us and help us imagine the world as you intend it to be.

Where there is hate, may we show love; where there is need, may we be charitable; where there is loneliness, may we give comfort; where there is misunderstanding, may we seek reconciliation. Where there is sorrow, may we show compassion, for it is only by giving of ourselves that we can become instruments of peace in the world. Amen.
