A Prayer for peace
Creator God
Today in a fractured world we pray for peace and justice,
Your peace, not built on our broken promises and failing courage,
But your deep peace, through your creative power and embodied in the service and sacrifice of Jesus.
May we follow Christ, seeking your justice, acting in solidarity and hope,
Even when the way seems unclear and the powers of our world don’t reflect your Kingdom,
Your Peace, Your Justice, Your Kingdom, Your world,
In Jesus name
Amen.
