Daily Intercession
Surely 1 have stilled and quieted my soul: like a weaned child with his mother, my soul is with men like a weaned child. O Israel, hope in the Lord, from this time forth and for evermore.—(Psalm 131: 2-3.)
O God and Father of all mankind, forgive all who are blameworthy the sins that have gone to the making of war. Search the troubled minds of warring peoples, and in them awaken the truths which Jesus uttered, and which are needed for just reconciliation and lasting peace. While without hypocrisy we declare that this conflict has been thrust on us, yet we confess that not always have we' done justly, loved mercy, and walked humbly with Thee. May Thy rule be manifest over the earth; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
