What do you want for this world? (Let’s try it again.)

Just found a glaring humongo typo in my last post – I hate when that happens – let us try it again, shall we? 🙂

What do you want

What do you want for your world?

What do you want

We were made for nobler things…

We are not going to be afraid – not one more day, hour, or second. We were made for nobler things.

A Prayer for Peace

Love, may the world know You today.
May all of creation feel the power of You.
May creation feel the joy and healing of Your touch.
May all of creation – sisters and brothers of Your making –
know themselves and each other as made in Your image –
the expressions of Love, with nothing inside or outside
of identity that’s not the pure expression of Love.

Truth, may Your power and strength fill all space,
light the dark places of the world, lift the veil of fear and confusion,
reveal and transform and fill us with courage.

Life, may we feel Your endless energy and boundless beauty,
never-ending, never dying, eternal, whole, complete,
filling all space.

Made in Your likeness, creation only expresses You.
All we can know is what Truth knows.
All we can feel is what Love feels.
All Creation is the expression of Peace.

Into the Mountains…

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. – Psalms 121

…The world felt safe here – untouched by war, pestilence, famine – greed and hatred seemed a universe away…

Who cares who started it?

I want to know who’s going to be the first to change course and lead us to peace.

Can I just hate this one person this one time?

“Can I just hate this one person this one time?” I asked Myself. “He’s killed without remorse. Been cruel beyond imagining. Surely he deserves to be hated?”

“Will it help you to hate? Will it help anyone to hate?” Myself asked me in return…

…and none of that is any of my business.

But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men’s matters. – I Peter 4: 15
