Message:
A seven year old boy asked his mother why they did not say grace
before meals (His mother and father worked for a vague christian
aid group in the USA). His mother explained that they were
not technically religious. The son asked if he could write
grace himself. The parents said that it might work.
The son and his brother created the prayer based on their experiences
through charitable aid work. The parents, made it more or
less succinct. We are of course enriched by the simplicity
and truth of these few words.
Prayer:
A grace for all faiths and occasions:
Hold hands, bow heads and say . . .
"One World, One Humanity at peace with itself,
In harmony with all that is."
Amen
