Monthly Reflection for July

Written on: July 1, 2015

Peacemakers Prayer

O God of peace,

sparkle our staleness with your hope,

invade the depth of our being with new courage,

defeat us in your love.

 

Grant that our lives may be:

surprising in forgiveness and healing,

abounding in joy and laughter,

daring in deeds and dreams of justice.

 

May we be do-ers, makers, pray-ers of peace

in memory of Christ Jesus.  Amen.

from the dedication Liturgy of Peacemakers Chapel, Walsh College, Canton , Ohio, January 15, 1984
