Peace
"Blessed are the peacemakers."
— Matthew 5:9
Prince of peace,
The world needs peace. Peace between nations, peace in families, peace in hearts. Violence, conflicts, wars destroy so many lives.
Make me a peacemaker. Not someone who avoids conflicts through cowardice, but someone who actively seeks reconciliation, dialogue, mutual understanding.
May I start by cultivating peace within me. For I can only give what I have. May this inner peace then radiate around me.
Amen.

Reflection
How can you be a peacemaker today? In what relationship, what situation?
For peace in the world and in all hearts.
