Prayer for the Healing & Care of our Mother Earth
(This Prayer is for all peoples and written so that it can be translated into your language.)
We give thanks to you, our Creator, (please use other appropriate names as you see fit, e.g. God, Yahweh, Allah, Ke Akua, Wakan Tanka, Buddha, etc.) for all the wonderful gifts you have bestowed upon us. We are grateful to you for helping us endure as long as we have on our beloved Mother Earth.
At this time of critical change, Creator, we ask you for strength and courage. We ask you to help each one of us gain the understanding and wisdom we need to heal, to love one another, and to finally realize peace. We ask you to help each one of us become more aware of our responsibilities in caring for all life on this beautiful planet.
Creator, we know deep inside that we are a part of you and all creation. We want to take back our roles as caretakers of our planet. We want to open our hearts to honoring, respecting and caring for our natural environment.
The global warming that is occurring all over the Earth is a blessed wake-up call. It is time to make a more loving, compassionate, thriving, vibrant world. Together, we can restore the integrity and healing powers of our water, air, and land to build a sustainable future for our children. Together, we can do this as One family working in unison to fulfill our purpose on this Earth.
Creator, we are grateful to be as one heart with you in this very special moment. We thank you again for giving us your love, your wisdom and your joy.
Aloha me ka maluhia (love and peace),
