Week of Prayer for Universal Peace


 PRAYER FOR PEACE

Week of Prayer for World Peace 17th to 24th October 2010

A Short Reflection by Angela Creagh



This is a week set aside to pray for Universal Peace.  Our world desperately needs peace and is being ravaged by violence. There is a deep hunger in the human soul for peace.

 This  hunger for peace is universal and our Satsang Commitment encourages us to earnestly seek to do all we can to break down the barriers between peoples and to work tirelessly in any way we can to build up relationships of compassion and peace.

Perhaps, Satsang Members could reflect on our need for peace and join in, particularly during the coming week , saying the following prayer.  This prayer is adapted from the Hindu Scriptures

It could also become a daily on-going prayer

PEACE PRAYER

               LORD,
Lead me from Death to Life,
From Falsehood to Truth

Lead me from Despair to Hope,
From Fear to Trust

Lead me from Hate to Love,
From War to Peace

Let Peace fill our heart,
Our World,
Our Universe

PEACE- PEACE - PEACE
