Happy Holidays!. Today we have a guest blog post from my good friend Jerry. He is describing a trip he took to Jerusalem and how it inspired his beautiful work “The Peace Poem”
I had spent the day sightseeing in Jerusalem. I returned to the Hotel that night late and exhausted. I sat in my hotel room and meditated before going to bed.
About 3 years ago I was asked by a fellow Prayer Associate that knew if I had published or written any inspirational poems.
This one came to mind and she liked it so well she encouraged me to offer it to the Daily Word Magazine. It only took 3 years for this to finally make its way into print. This Peace Poem may be found in Unity’s Daily Words current issue. The incredible journey of this poem. Thanks for allowing me to share this with you.

The Peace Poem by Jerry Shipman
We pray for peace
in the world;
That every soul
may awaken to God;
That every heart
open to every heart;
That every face
will face each other
With a smile and
a helping hand,
And love will be known
throughout our world.
We pray knowing it is so.
