A Thanksgiving prayer from Stanley Peele

I hope Stanley doesn't mind but I couldn't find any better way of saying this:

THANKSGIVING PRAYER

Dear God, as we give thanks to you,

Let us allow Your Love

To enter in.

In this time of turmoil and fear,

Let peace enter deep within our souls;

And pardon all insults.

Insulate us from hate Completely.

Help us to go to that place of serenity

Where judgment cannot enter.

Let love shine from us

Like sparking dew in the morning sunshine.

Let this prayer for peace be done

Every morning, at every meal, and every night.

 And when walking, with every step.

So that,

When we pray for peace on earth, then,

As it is within, so shall it be without.

Stanley
