Our family had come to the end of another month and begun a new monthly cycle of spiritual growth. It started off with a talk in church about “family prayer for peace.” My wife, Nelda, and I sat down and discussed how we should approach this new month. Our children were young and impressionable, so we needed to set an example that they would follow throughout their lives. In the past, when we tried to discuss prayer, it always seemed as though our children just had no interest or desire to participate in such a religious activity that promised nothing but good will towards their fellow men.Prayers for Peace and Protection, A Short Prayer for Peace
It was a warm morning in Kabul that summer. One morning as I sat in class waiting for the day’s first lesson to begin, I noticed an eerie silence. There was an immediate halt in play as the kids turned their attention to something off to my left. Turning to see what all the kids were staring at, I saw an Afghan soldier in the middle of the playground, holding two weapons. When he turned and pointed a gun at me, my heart gave a little flutter. Instead of shooting, he told everyone to go inside the school.

Prayer for Peace
Lord, help me to accept the things I cannot change and to change the things I can.
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can and wisdom to know the difference.
Prayer for peace and protection
Lord, we give you thanks for the grace of mercy. Through Christ, we have experienced your kindness and forgiveness.
We hope for a world where everyone can get along and share in the happiness that comes from that. The world needs peacemakers, and I pray that we all have the courage to make it. Provide the grace to love one another as Christ loved the church. Amen
Please, Lord
In this day of prayer, we come to you.
Our country is struggling with violence and conflict, and we need your advice and assistance. Peace on Earth, God’s blessings upon our leaders, and unity among us—these are the things for which we pray. Help us remember that we are all God’s children, regardless of our racial, ethnic, or religious backgrounds.
Encourage us to put in the effort to understand those who are different from us in terms of both beliefs and cultural background, and to treat them with kindness and generosity. Give us some examples of how we can facilitate communication between people so that they can better appreciate one another’s perspectives and grow as a result.
Please join us as we reach out to those in greatest need with acts of love and service. With the help of Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with you now and forever, may we all learn to live in harmony with one another. Amen
Prayer For Peace
God, please help me heal my heart and find peace.
I know that I need to forgive, but it’s so hard. Please help me.
I want to be at peace with myself and others, but I can’t seem to do it on my own. Please help me find the strength within myself to forgive and let go of this anger that is consuming me.
I pray for peace for everyone affected by this tragedy; their families, friends and anyone else who has lost a loved one or friend in this terrible event. May they rest in peace and find comfort in God’s love during this difficult time.
I pray for peace for all those who have been injured physically or emotionally by this incident; may they find the strength within themselves to heal and recover quickly so they may enjoy their lives again without pain or suffering as soon as possible.
