Rivers of prayer
flood the bowels
of strife,
anger, hatred. . .
overwhelming the
toxicity
of malignance.
Peace
will bring healing
to the lacerations
of human folly,
when wisdom breaths
into the minds
of rulers, peoples,
nations, and we
are swept
into the spirit
of forgiveness,
convicted by
the sense
of our own need,
and humbled
into compliance
with Christ’s command
to love our enemies
and friends alike.
Faith,
Hope,
Love
burning
into our hearts.
As He said,
the greatest
of these
is
Love.
