If we constantly made a Prayer to Saint Benedict to ask for world peace from the place where we are and all in unity, surely this prayer would be heard by God. But sadly we have forgotten to pray and we simply complain or reproach and spend little time reflecting on what each one of us can do to contribute and live in harmony, and most importantly, always be in the hands of Our Lord.
Oh Saint Benedict, with your infinite love for God!
Who is our father and rules the whole world,
Today before you we recognize his infinite love and your great intersection,
We know that despite the resistance in humanity and the division that today arises in the entire world,
That we often see disputes and discord among our brothers,
Without hesitation we come to you,
Beloved and fervent Saint Benedict,
Asking you for world peace,
That we can live united with each other,
Where joy and union always reign,
Where there is not so much division,
Where violence and manipulation,
no longer make presence,
And where good and cordiality prevail and reign,
There is nothing impossible for you,
And we prostrate ourselves confidently at your feet.
Oh my God!,
please hear us,
Send us the strength of your spirit,
And that he can work in the depths of hearts,
Let dialogue be possible between enemies,
That the hands of adversaries may shake,
So that all united we can find reconciliation and harmony.
We beseech you that charity prevail over hate,
And that forgiveness exceeds revenge,
May all those who hold the reins of the world,
Do the right thing for the good of all,
That everyone here on earth,
We can feel like brothers
And let it be a wish for all,
Achieve peace and make it present,
May it endure above all difficulties,
Only you can
In you we believe, in you we hope,
We surrender to you
Amen.
We pray a Creed at the end of this prayer, asking for the peace of the whole world.
