Prayer for Peace - Beginning with Ourselves

Today is Sept 11. We are reminded of that fateful day back in 2001, where terrorists attacked the United States and our lives in many ways have been affected. From travel to security measures, from suspicions to preventative wars on terrorism in different parts of the world, many have felt that the world instead of growing safer has become even more dangerous by the day. Today is a Day of Prayer for many people. This week's Midweek Meditation will be on prayer for peace, beginning with ourselves. Let the following prayer of St Francis of Assisi be your guide. Watch a beautiful rendition of the prayer here.

May there be peace on earth. We can all play a part, beginning with ourselves. conrade
