Peace can begin with the way we handle disagreements. We can listen to each side until the end, use good humor to ease tension, and keep trying to repair damaged relationships. We can also work with others to create places where peace is understood, discussed, and practiced.
Inspired by Chiara Lubich
Word of Life, February 1981
Prayer for Peace
God, help us listen before reacting and calm tension instead of adding to it. Give us patience and courage to repair relationships and help build peace around us. Amen.
A prayer a day, keeps the soul from drifting away.
