A Prayer for Truth, Healing, and Hope, August 18, 2025

Dear Divine Presence, we address you with reverence, seeking wisdom for our leaders, healing for our communities, and peace for a world yearning for restoration.

We welcome the hopeful developments emerging from discussions to end the war in Ukraine. May diplomacy be guided not by pride or politics, but by compassion, justice, and the inherent value of every human life. Let peace endure, not be fragile, and may the voices of the affected be heard in every negotiation.

We implore integrity in our democratic processes, as debates arise regarding mail-in ballots and election security. May truth prevail over rhetoric, and every vote be honored as a sacred act of citizenship. May leaders be stewards of trust, not sowers of division.

We hold in prayer the release of the Epstein files and all those whose stories have remained concealed. May justice be administered with care, and the dignity of survivors be protected above all. Let truth not bring shame, but healing.

We mourn the loss of Matthew Perry and the pervasive cycle of addiction, pain, and accountability. For all who struggle in silence, may there be light, support, and pathways to recovery. May mercy guide our judgments, and love lead our reforms.

We remember the woman whose dogs succumbed to illness, and whose own body bore the burden of unseen toxins. May her story awaken us to the sanctity of clean water and the urgency of environmental justice. Let no one endure suffering in silence under the shadow of corporate neglect.

We express gratitude for the quiet triumphs of science, as researchers progress toward reversing balding—a small indication that healing can emerge even after decades of disappointment. May this spirit of perseverance inspire breakthroughs in every field where suffering still awaits relief.

In all these matters—in every courtroom and laboratory, in every summit and backyard garden, in every act of courage and every cry for assistance—we ask:

May peace prevail. May truth be spoken. May healing come. And may we, each in our own way, become vessels of grace in a world that aspires to restoration. Amen 💕✌️🙏
