Pray for peace within yourself, between neighbors, and in the wider world.
Original prayer · Life of the Saints
God of peace, quiet the anger that closes my heart. Teach me to listen without preparing a sharp reply. Protect those threatened by violence, strengthen peacemakers, and guide leaders toward justice. Show me one act of reconciliation I can make today, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Bring it into your day
Choose one conversation in which you will listen patiently.
