A Prayer For an End to Violence

God of Life,
Every act of violence in our world, in our communities, between myself and others, destroys a part of
Your Creation.
Stir in my heart, a renewed sense of reverence for all life.
Give me the vision to recognise Your Spirit in every human being however they behave towards me.
Make possible the impossible by cultivating in me the fertile seed of Healing Love.
May I play my part in breaking the cycle of violence by realising that Peace begins with me.


First prayed on 7th July, 2005 in St. Ethelbura’s church in the City of London rebuilt,
after bomb damage in 1993, as a centre for Reconciliation and Peace.
