Teach Us To Pray

Branches of Understanding

Season of asking in prayer

Dear Lord, 

In this world where conflicts flare up so easily, help me be a beacon of Your peace. When tensions rise and harsh words tempt my tongue, remind me of Your gentle ways. Give me the courage to extend olive branches instead of building walls. 

Open my ears to truly listen, Lord, and guide my words to speak with love. When others push my buttons, help me respond with grace. In moments of disagreement, let me see Your image in those I struggle to understand. 

Thank You for Your peace through Jesus. Help me follow His example and build bridges of understanding. 

In Jesus’ name, Amen
