Prayer for Peace

 

Flowing river

July

St. Francis Province, North India

Heavenly Father, creator of the universe and giver of peace, we come together to pray for peace.

The flowing river evokes a sense of tranquillity and harmony. It represents an effortless progression of time and events, mirroring the smooth unfolding of peace in our lives.

Flowing water is highly adaptable and changes its course according to the landscape it encounters. Dear Lord, just as it finds its way around obstacles, we pray for the ability to navigate through challenges and conflicts with resilience and understanding.

Water sustains life and its flow is essential for the vitality of ecosystems. Let peace flow from us to all the suffering, abandoned, and disappointed, nurturing and giving life.

Flowing water has a calming effect on the mind and spirit. Grant this grace to all and bring about a sense of calm amidst the storms of life, and a serenity that soothes and uplifts the soul. Thank you for directing our thoughts, intentions, and energy toward the manifestation of peace.

May the vibrations of peace generated through our prayer, transform the world, foster empathy and compassion, and alleviate suffering.

Amen.
