The Second Peace Prayer


The Second Peace Prayer is complete. After the invitation to write Peace Prayers, this followed my daughter Micha Goudeau's time in prayer for what to write.

Micha Goudeau
God grant me the wisdom
To be the best parent I can be
The gratitude for the opportunity
And the discipline to make them disciples
Loving them each day with purpose
Living one moment at a time
Handling challenges as an opportunity to strengthen
Accepting, as my parents did, the ups and downs
In a manner that pleases God, and not my human nature
Trusting God for direction as we travel along the way
That I may be a parent that makes my heavenly father proud,
On this day and every one after
Amen

The world awaits our shared blessing of PEACE PRAYERS. Is your next? WE can do this and be thankful. WE can be PROUD that we shared a time of shared giving to many beyond ourselves and our immediate communities.

Know you are loved. Send Micha your comments and observations to Micha on Facebook.

I invite you to join me developing adaptations of the Serenity Prayer in a collection to be called the Peace Prayers. The goal will be to develop 52 adaptations, one for each week of 2015.
The Rules

Keep in mind that an adaptation is something that is adapted; especially, a movie, a book, play, etc., that is changed so that it can be presented in another form.

  1. Make your adaptation true to the spirit of Niebuhr's Serenity Prayer using his model for form and format.
  2. Begin your adaptation with the word 'God'.
  3. Do not use the word 'serenity' in your adaptation.
  4. Make sure your adaptation is one with peace central to its theme.
  5. After developing your adaptation of 14 lines and an Amen, write a 400 character comment expressing your personal sense of your adaptation.
  6. Use this opportunity to be a blessing in your work, now and for many years to come.
  7. If your work is selected, it will be included in the completed adaptations to be called the PEACE PRAYERS.
  8. All Contributors will be licensed to give away the eBook edition of PEACE PRAYERS through the holiday season from Thanksgiving through Christmas and New Years. You will have an excellent gift to give away to all you love and care about.
For further information, text 602 - 413 - 8942 and ask for a scheduled return call or email oscarcrawfordchristianmedia@gmail.com.

We make the world a better place every time we love and bless one another, each other, and others one soul at a time.
