Blessed [are] the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
(Matthew 5:19 KJV)

Let me bring peace
in the way of the Way.
My terms of peace
are narrow and human.

Let me be
an assertive woman
speaking the things
that ought to be said.

Let me be the one
to pray into the hate zones,
speaking His words,
being His voice.

Let me be the one
who radiates peace.
Let others feel it
and know Who it’s from.
