Heavenly Father,
In the stillness of this moment, we come before You,
Seeking the peace that only You can give.
Quiet the storms within us, calm the fears around us,
And let Your presence fill our hearts with serenity.

Lord Jesus, Prince of Peace,
Teach us to be peacemakers in a world of division.
Help us to sow love where there is hatred,
Forgiveness where there is hurt,
And hope where there is despair.

Holy Spirit, breath of peace,
Move through our homes, our communities, and our nations.
Open our hearts to understanding,
And guide us to act with compassion and justice.

God of mercy and grace,
May Your peace reign in our hearts,
In our relationships, and in the world You created.
We entrust ourselves to You,
Knowing that in Your hands, peace is always possible.

Amen.
