A Prayer for Veterans
Heavenly Father, King and Lord, You instill in all of Your creation an
order and value. You call Your children "very good."
We surrender to You the conflicts that tear your family apart.
We pray for an end to blindness that places pride, greed, power, and
selfishness above human dignity and brotherly love.
We pray in gratitude for all of those who have defended
peace, virtue, and justice with honor.
We pray especially for those who have suffered in mind and body
from the ravages of war. Let Your Kingdom come!
May Your peace that surpasses all
Understanding reign in our hearts and in our world.
Amen.
