A Prayer for Peace in the Midst of Difficult Times

“Peace. It does not mean to be in a place where there is no trouble, noise, or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.” ~Unknown

For myself, in this time of anxiety and uncertainty,

I seek the Spirit’s peace.

For the most vulnerable among us,

I seek the Spirit’s peace.

For caregivers and health care workers at risk,

I seek the Spirit’s peace.

For those lacking income to pay the bills,

I seek the Spirit’s peace.

For those isolated and feeling alone,

I seek the Spirit’s peace.

For those making decisions with implications for many,

I seek the Spirit’s peace.

Empower us all to continue caring, loving, and offering the Spirit’s peace to those whose lives we touch.

Peace to all,

Rebecca S. Hauder, RN, LCPC
