Peace
I search for peace (Psalm 120:7; NLT).
The LORD will mediate between nations and will settle international disputes. They will hammer their swords into ploughshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will no longer fight against nation, nor train for war any more (Isaiah 2:4; NLT)
“ ‘You must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your strength, and all your mind. And, ‘Love your neighbour as yourself’ ” (Luke 10:27; NLT).
Lord,
I pray for peace and love
In every hawkish, warring mind,
Every bitter, angry heart,
And every damaged, suffering soul,
Throughout your world.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
