My prayer...

As I was driving home from work tonight, a song came on the all Christmas radio station, and thinking on it made me cry...

There are a zillion things I could pray for tonight, but for me, the greatest of these is peace.

I can't control what happens in some far away land, or even next door, but I can control what happens in my world.

So tonight I pray this Christmas prayer, and not selfishly for me, but for every admin and moderator, every poster and lurker...tonight I pray for peace. God bless you one and all...



Let there be peace on earth,
and let it begin with me.
Let there be peace on Earth,
the peace that was meant to be.


With God as our Father,
brothers all are we,
Let me walk with my brother,
in perfect harmony.


Let peace begin with me,
let this be the moment now.
With every step I take,
let this be my solemn vow,


To take each moment and live each moment
in peace, eternally.
Let there be Peace on Earth,
and let it begin with me.

Sis. Barb,

If there is anything this world needs, it is peace. If each one who
is searching for peace would allow the Prince of Peace into their
hearts and lives, there would be peace. Only HE can bring the peace
that is needed. And, yes, let it begin with me. In Jesus Name!

Hugs,

Falla39
