Our prayer for this forty-third day of Lent…
“FEROCIOUS God, we fear your peace. Â We say we want peace, but we confess that war and violence capture our imagination and our spirits. Â Violate our violence with the transforming power of your love. Â Wrench us from all hatreds and loves that are the breeding ground of our violence. Â We cannot will that your peace come, but through the Spirit you make it possible for us to live in your peace. Â So fire us with that Spirit that we world might be flooded with your reconciling kingdom. Â AMEN.” Â — Stanley Hauerwas
Strong words, I will be seeking to live them out today.
Peace, Jim
