prayer for august 2014

my heart is breaking with the shape of the world.  so, i thought i'd share two prayers that a bringing me peace and comfort.

Holy Spirit,
You came to us in every language of every culture and every nation.
Pour out your power upon our divisions.
Remind us that every tongue is a reflection of your beautiful creation.
You converted our babble of sounds into speech.
You made our differences become our hope.
But we have run away from each other,
And have created enclaves of race, color, and creed.
Bring us back to a place where we can hear you, see you, and feel your presence in every human being.
And we pray for peace among us in Your name.

Amen.

AND
