A Prayer for All People, Peace, and Love

Loving Father, I lift up to You my friends and family, and all those near to my heart. Draw them close to Your love and keep them safe in Your care.

I pray for those who do not yet believe. Open their eyes to Your kindness, and let them know they are never beyond Your reach.

Watch over the children in their innocence, and the elderly in their wisdom and need. Comfort all who are suffering, and ease every burden they carry.

Fill this weary world with Your peace, and teach us all to love one another as You have loved us. In Jesus' name, Amen.

When to Pray This

Pray this whenever your heart is full of concern for others and the world around you. It is a gentle way to lift up many people at once, perhaps in the quiet of morning or at the close of the day.
