Putin’s energy would be better spent on building a different, new Russia, one whose prosperity is based on cooperation, not confrontation, with its neighbors.”
Other people have prayed about such issues in different times and places. Here is a sampling of ideas that inspired them.

In “Russia: A spiritual perspective. “ Walt Rogers, who reported from Russia for several years, writes, “No force can overwhelm God's law or His spiritual order. Acknowledgment of God's love for each of us mitigates human fear. Nobody has an inherent predilection for despotism.”
Roman Ermakov writes in his article, “A Russian Christian Scientist’s thoughts on Ukraine”: “In this divine consciousness it is clear that the great I AM, infinite Mind, cannot be and never was divided into persons, places, things, or situations, which might conflict with each other, hate each other, fight each other.”
