    Prayer for Peace – by St. John XXIII

     

    Lord Jesus Christ,

    who are called the Prince of Peace,

    who are yourself our peace and reconciliation,

    who so often said, “Peace to you,”

    grant us peace.

    Make all men and women witnesses of

    truth, justice, and brotherly love.

    Banish from their hearts whatever might endanger peace.

    Enlighten our rulers that they may guarantee

    and defend the great gift of peace.

    May all peoples of the earth becomes as brothers and sisters.

    May longed-for peace blossom forth

    and reign always over us all.

    Amen.

    Rosemary's Blessing:  

    Gracious God inspire us with the hope in the gift of shalom, the gift of wholeness and the promise of your presence.

    Give wisdom to seek nonviolence as an answer to the violence of our lives and world.

    Give us courage to seek wholeness in a fractured and divided world, to find reconciliation rather than revenge, to abandon the instruments of violence and death and entrust our lives, our homes and our families to you.

    May your presence fill us and others with the thirst for unity, wholeness, and the desire to see all people valued as created in your image.

    May we and others receive your shalom, that we might be faithful instruments of your love.

    Blessed be your name forever,

    Amen.

    1 Peter 2:  You are "a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people of his own, so that you may announce the praises" of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

    …and life is still a constant surprise to me.  We never know what will happen next, what we will see, and what important person will come into our life, or what important person we will lose.  Life is change, constant change, and unless we are lucky enough to find comedy in it, change is nearly always drama, if not tragedy.  But after everything, and even when the skies turn scarlet and threatening, I still believe that if we are lucky enough to be alive, we must give thanks for the miracle of every moment of every day, no matter how flawed.  And we must have faith in God, and in the Universe, and in a better tomorrow even if that faith is not always deserved.
