YEAR OF FAITH PRAYER

Lord,

some doors have a sign on them, “Pull!”;

some doors have a sign on them, “Push!”

May we see at every door

an invisible sign saying, “Pause!”
Then during this year of faith

before we make our entrance or our exit,

may we pray this simple prayer:

“Lord, may I bring peace to all in this place

I’m about to enter: home, school, store, work;

and when I’m going out, “May I bring peace

to everyone I meet out in our world today. Amen.”
