Fill Us, Fill Us
Fill us. Fill us.
Fill us with your peace.
That we may live as sisters and brothers,
Harming no one.

[Prayer: Urging Spirit, ©2017 Bret Hesla]
Urging Spirit, Fill us with your peace.
Peace that feels like the urge to share what we have.
Peace that feels like the urge to compassion for others.
Peace that feels like the urge to listen
Peace that feels like the urge to make room at the table
Peace that feels like the urge to find a difficult compromise
Peace that feels like the urge to take a risk to stop violence
Peace that feels like the urge to be kind
Fill us with your urging peace.
[sing]
Allowing Spirit, Fill us with your peace.
The Peace that allows us to let go of busyness
The Peace that allows us to be satisfied with what we have
The Peace that allows us to breathe deeply
The Peace that allows us to make space for other living things
The Peace that allows us to consider the common good
The Peace that allows us to question what’s not working
Fill us with your allowing peace.
[sing]
Inviting Spirit, Fill us with your peace.
Peace that invites us into cheerful partnership with all things.
Peace that invites us to walk in the direction of less harmful habits
Peace that invites us to honor the habitats of others
Peace that invites us to make butterfly gardens
Fill us with your inviting peace.
[sing]
