A Prayer to Calm Hateful Feelings



Nicodemus reveres the Heart of Jesus


WE THANK YOU, O Master and Lover of Humankind, Ruler of time and Giver of every good thing, Who destroys our walls of hatred and grants peace to the world. Instill in me a love for You and fear of anything that would take me from You and confirm me in love for other people. Extinguish every dispute and banish every temptation to bitterness and contentious disagreement. For You are our Peace and to You we send up glory: to the Father, and to the Son, and to Holy Spirit, now and ever, and to the ages of ages. Amen.
