Prayers for peace

In our April 7 issue, The Christian Science Board of Directors published a request for readers to share with the Sentinel their ongoing prayers "to settle conflicts in the Middle East and Persian Gulf." Following are more of the contributions we've received.

I like the idea that God controls His creation. God, as the source and center of all good, controls the situations that try to dictate a state of ward.

I can see, recognize, and experience God's perfect harmony. Right where conflict seems to be, there is perfect peace, harmony, and calm. It may take discipline to consistently be attuned to this, but just knowing that it is always there and a present possibility gives power to my attempts to experience its reality.
