Dear God,

As I worked in the garden soil, quietly listening to creation sing, I heard the song, "Peace before me, peace beside me, let all around me be peace."  I joined in the singing as I prayed for peace for the whole world, every person and creature, particularly those whose lives are anything but peace.  I let it be sung inside me, periodically singing along.

You, O Lord, know what we need when we need it.  In this terrible time of Covid 19, we need peace.  All people need peace...Brazil, Africa, every nation needs peace right now.  As I sang along, I simply added my voice to all others.

You are peace,
my Lord;
you are
the only
true peace.
Thank you
for singing
in my soul.
Thank you
for letting me
join with you.

Love, Andrea
