What the World Needs Now: PEACE

Might you be looking at how you might support your prayer practice during this Lenten Season? May I suggest you consider getting yourself a copy of “Praying with the Earth: A Prayerbook for Peace” J.P. Newell’s, user friendly compilation of morning and evening prayers are rooted in the prayers, scriptures, and artistic riches of the faith traditions of Jews, Muslims, and Christians. Nowell provides individuals with a spiritual pathway to a contemplative oasis where one can discover soul food and find oneself nourished from these long-standing wisdom sources.

We become spiritually grounded as we pray on one of the beatitudes. Each of the daily morning and evening prayers gently challenge us to live out of this wholistic attitude, one Jesus called blessed. Using this prayer aid fosters global peace, one day, one person at a time, as we reflect, find our inner peace, and voice our desire for peace.
