James 3:17-18 (ESV)
17 But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. 18 And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

Father making peace is one of the greatest challenges
we are confronted with today. We pray for your wisdom, guidance and grace to so
influence society that peace will prevail in overcoming strife, conflict and
violence. Farther we know that peace comes at a severe price. Help us to be
willing advocates and examples of what it means to sow peace and thereby be
peacemakers.
Father you have told us how to do this in the above
verse by being: pure, peaceable, gentle, reasonable, merciful, fruitful,
impartial and sincere. May the salt of this disposition so penetrate our
society that there will be a harvest of righteousness for your glory and honor.
In the name of Jesus who is our peace,
Amen
