Day 15: Prayer for Peace and Comfort

Reflection: Children should be able to experience peace: freedom from anxiety, fear, and turmoil. Yet many children worldwide live in constant stress due to war, violence, family conflict, or personal trauma. Jesus promises to give his peace. A peace that is different from anything the world offers.

When we pray for peace and comfort, we're asking God to surround children with his supernatural peace that transcends their circumstances. We're interceding for children living in war zones, those experiencing family turmoil, and those whose hearts are troubled by things beyond their control. We're also praying for communities torn apart by conflict, and for leaders who make decisions that affect children's safety and wellbeing. God's peace is not merely the absence of conflict but the presence of his calming, reassuring spirit. It's a peace that can exist even in the midst of storms.

Today, let us pray for children who need peace in their hearts and homes, for those who have been traumatized by violence or conflict, and for communities working toward reconciliation and harmony. May we be instruments of God's peace in a troubled world.
