Today's poem by John Philip Newell has been chosen by Associate Chaplain, Ali Newell. In lives where love has been born this day thanks be to you, O God. In families where forgiveness has been strong thanks be to you. In nations where wrongs have been addressed where tenderness has been cherished and where visions for earth’s oneness have been served thanks be to you. May those who are weary find rest this day. May those who carry great burdens for their people find strength. May the midwives of new beginnings in our world find hope. And may each one of us find strength in our souls worth in our words and love in our living Amen From Praying with the earth: A prayerbook for Peace by John Philip Newell Image This article was published on 2024-06-24
