A prayer for peace in troubled times
Let peace begin in the small spaces—in our breath, in our words, in our choices—and ripple outward into a world that needs gentleness. Hold those who are hurting. Protect those who feel unsafe. Lift those who are weary. And remind us that even in uncertainty, we are not without light. Amen.
May these and all our intercessions be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, our strength and our redeemer.
