Make Me a Channel of Your Peace
A Universal Prayer for Healing and Unity
"Make Me a Channel of Your Peace" is a timeless prayer that transcends religious boundaries, calling all people…..regardless of faith or background, to become instruments of peace, healing, and love in a world that often seems fractured and divided, even at times seemingly torn asunder. While traditionally attributed to St. Francis of Assisi, the message of this prayer resonates with anyone seeking to embody compassion and offer light in the midst of darkness.
At its heart, the prayer is a call for spiritual transformation. It begins with the simple yet powerful request: “Make me an instrument of Your peace.” This plea speaks to the deep human longing for connection and harmony. It recognizes that true peace is not merely the absence of conflict, but the active presence of love, understanding, and compassion. To be an "instrument of peace" is to allow oneself to be a channel through which these qualities flow, to be a conduit for healing energy that brings unity to individuals, communities, and the world.
