Peace is the goal that mankind pursues and yearns for.
However, if the world wants peace, each of us has an obligation to be the one who sows the seeds of peace. I especially like Francis of San Sicily's Prayer for Peace:
Lord! Lord, let me be your instrument of peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow kindness,
Where there is harm, let me sow forgiveness,
Where there is doubt, let me sow trust.
Ah! Lord! Lord, let us be your tools of peace.
Where there is despair, let me sow hope,
Where there is darkness, let me sow light,
Where there is sadness, let me sow happiness.
Ah! Lord! Lord, let us be your tools of peace.
I don't ask for comfort, I just ask for comfort.
I don't ask for forgiveness, I just ask for forgiveness.
I don't pray for others' love, just love others.
Ah! Lord! Lord, let us be your tools of peace.
Because when giving alms to others,
We are given because when we forgive others,
We were forgiven, because when we lost our lives,
We are born in eternity.
The prayers of saints often inspire me to live in peace. When I encounter a dispute, prayer inspires me to face it with peace of mind and deal with it with forgiveness and friendship.
I was particularly moved by the word "sowing" used by saints. Where there is hatred, let's sow love. Sowing is a beautiful word. This is a process. Sowing requires loosening soil, fertilizing, weeding and watering, and then waiting patiently. This requires patience, dedication and responsibility.
Jesus issued a charter to Christians in the Sermon on Mountaineering: there are eight blessings, one of which is: blessed are the peacemakers, and they will become children of God.
At one o'clock on June 8, peace-loving people all over the world prayed for world peace, for people persecuted by war, and for God to heal their painful bodies and minds, so that they can enjoy peace and live a stable life as soon as possible, and let our prayers go straight to heaven and let the world bloom with peace.
