Prayer against hate

Dear God,

…

Please remove from my mind the tendency to judge.

Please remove from my mind the tendency to hate.

Please remove from my mind the tendency to blame.

Please reveal to me, Lord, a way to stand in my power,

  through love instead of fear, and through peace instead of violence.

May I hear not the voice of anger, but only the voice of love.

And teach me, dear Lord, how not to hate those who hate me.

Transform all darkness into light, dear God,

And use my mind as an instrument of Your harmlessness.

I surrender to You my thoughts of violence.

Take these thoughts, Lord, and wash them clean.

Thank You very much.

…

Amen.

…
