Hello all,

some of you already know me :-) I haven't been posting or even reading on mumsnet for such a long time....

I am in need of help. I would appreciate any sort of multifaith prayers involving Christian, Jewish and Muslim faith together.
Especially in connection with peace. Thank you so much. Oh by the way I could only find one Sad BUt am glad I found it.

Interfaith Prayer for Peace
Anonymous
O God, you are the source of life and peace.
Praised be your name forever.
We know it is you who turns our minds to thoughts of peace.
Hear our prayer in this time of crisis.
Your power changes hearts.

Muslims, Christians, and Jews remember, and profoundly affirm,
that they are followers of the one God,
Children of Abraham, brothers and sisters;
enemies begin to speak to one another;
those who were estranged join hands in friendship;
nations seek the way of peace together.

Strengthen our resolve to give witness to these
truths by the way we live.
Give to us:
Understanding that puts an end to strife;
Mercy that quenches hatred, and
Forgiveness that overcomes vengeance.
Empower all people to live in your law of love
Amen.

Found this one on there as well. Thank you greenegg

Let us see one another through eyes
enlightened by understanding and compassion.

Release us from judgment so we can receive the stories
of our sisters and brothers with respect and attention.

Open our hearts to the cries of a suffering world
and the healing melodies of peace and justice for all creation.

Empower us to be instruments of justice
and equality everywhere.

(prayer for everyday for all creation)

And this one I like as well.

Dear God of All Humanity,

We ask that you empower us to be
ambassadors of your love and wisdom
to all the peoples of the earth.

We know that, with your grace,
we can disrupt the cycle of pain and suffering
visited upon your children — including those who
appear to be agents of hate and intolerance
but who are, in fact, victims of suffering as well.

To remedy our imbalance, we ask that you
give us the strength and courage to act
as one family deserving of your mercy so that
peace and unity may be realized in our lifetimes.

We ask this in your name.

(Amen)

May I be peaceful.
May I be happy.
May I be well.
May I be safe.
May I be free from suffering.

May all beings be peaceful.
May all beings be happy.
May all beings be well.
May all beings be safe.
May all beings be free from suffering.
