Growing peace — Steve Garnaas-Holmes, USA

Let me stand before enemies with love
prepared to break soil, to prune branches
to do the hard work of growing peace

For I will need stout tools to work this rough land well,
to bring fruits of justice out of rocky earth,
to tend the muscular trees of mercy.

Steve Garnaas-Holmes serves in ministry with the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), USA.
