Prayer Offered for March 11, 2019

God of loving kindness and mercy, we ask you to

Quiet us, that out of still spaces we may hear your voice

May we walk in faith all our days,

Aware of the interdependence of all living things,

And come to know You in everything and in each other.

Quiet us, O Silent Word, that out of still spaces we may hear your voice.

From the galaxies and the furthest stars

To the smallest atoms in our hearts,

You are the Living Flame of Love.

May we see Your divinity in the “within” and the “without” of all things.

Quiet us, O Silent Word, that out of still spaces we may hear your voice.

Gather us together, O Healing Presence,

That we may live in peace with all people

And bring glory to Your name.—AMEN.
