Father in Heaven,
We live in a world shrouded in hate, anger, and division.
Despite your commandments to love one another,
your children instead choose the darker path,
the path through which flow the forces that are tearing this world and ourselves apart.
We know that this is not the way of peace, but rather the voice of the adversary.
Help us to resist the darkness,
to speak only love, act only in love, and walk only in the way of love
that we may spread the light of your love throughout our world.
Let us forgive, and seek forgiveness.
Help us to walk this very difficult path, always leading with kindness and compassion.
Help us to always remember that we are loved and forgiven,
and that we have to treat others in the same way.
Help us to resist the hot winds of lies, bitterness, and hate
and push back with the cool breezes of truth, love, and reconciliation.
The journey towards the establishment of your kingdom here on earth
begins with the steps
we take today to prepare the way.
In the name of Your Son, the
Prince of Peace,
Amen
