Today I ask God to help me
focus
on consciousness rather than
celebration
that I do not become so
distracted by world events,
that I fail to pay attention
to the healing needed in my
own life.
I ask for the courage to see
the darkness
within my own heart
and for light to illuminte
understanding within in my
own mind.
I pray for the families of
those killed in Pakistan,
members of the Armed Forces
that are away from home
and all innocent people
involved in political
actions.
I pray for compassion, logic
and understanding
to enter the minds of all
world leaders
and for continued healing
for all unrest in our world.
