Evening Prayer – 28 December 2018

The sun has set and the Vesper Lights flicker and glow
Family is all safely back home
Christmas time with them is concluded
Today has also been a time of introspection
Time spent resting and reflecting
Time spent with a dear brother
Time watching meaning-filled movies
Rent–living and loving fully in the present
Walking through the Valley of the Shadows
Offering love, hope, reconciliation, peace
Springsteen–remembering our youth
Hearing the message of Justice and Equality
A present day prophet speaking aloud
Working for a better future

As I look at the present insanity in our nation and world
As I see and feel the hatred and fear
Lord, help me to see and to be the hope
Help me to be an instrument of your Peace
Help me to be an instrument of your Love
Lord, help me to walk with ALL of your children in Love, Hope, Freedom, Reconciliation
Lord, in your mercy, hear this humble prayer
Dona Nobis Pacem
Grant Us Peace
A wee prayer from the heart of your Padre…
