A prayer at Eastertide
Risen Christ,
in the midst of grief and despair,
at the very point when all seemed lost
you stood in the midst of your friends in the fullness of your resurrection reality
and proclaimed your peace:
a peace that reorders and renews all things.
May the same peace find a home in us
and, at the urging of your Spirit,
may we be today and everyday
bearers of hope
and enablers of peace
in the power of your Name.
Amen
The Most Reverend Frank T. Griswold
