A Wish Upon a Candle Seek For Peace
My Father in Heaven
we are your children that you watch over.
In Matthew 7:7; Jesus says,
"Ask, and you shall receive,
seek, and you will find,
knock, and it will be opened".
I come to you to ask,
to give us strength and peace
you can only give.
Our World is in so much chaos, fear, and confusion,
everyone seems to be drowning.
Some are saying,
our President is destroying our America's economy
and some are wanting our president to resign.
Our last president almost started a coup attempt
and divided our country with hate.
COVID-19 pandemic outbreak
has caused so many to lose their jobs;
their employer closed or lost business
due to the pandemic, and so many have died.
Our children have been exposed to gun violence.
There have been twenty-seven school shootings this year.
Where is the modeling at home and our schools?
Then there is the war in Ukraine,
and their surrounding neighbors;
one of the most brutal battles in Europe.
Please, Father, open everyone's heart
and poor your loving heart into their souls.
Let there be peace, love, and faith for all.
Only by your power Lord
Amen
