A Prayer for Peace

When your heart is troubled and the world feels loud, God offers a peace that does not depend on your circumstances. This is a quiet prayer for peace.

God of peace, my heart is restless and I long to be still. Settle the storm inside me, and teach me to lay down what I keep picking back up. Where there is conflict, bring gentleness. Where there is fear, bring calm. Let your peace guard my heart and my mind, deeper than my understanding, steadier than my mood. I receive it now as a gift from your hand. Amen.
