ARE WE READY FOR THE PEACE TABLE?

From the April 1944 issue of The Christian Science Journal


There are those who feel today, if only they could be present at the peace table, how grateful they would be to contribute their part to the establishment and promotion of true peace. In one sense their desire is already answered, for though it may not be possible for them to be personally present, their thought nevertheless can be a very active and vital aid. As Lord Tennyson has truly said,

More things are wrought by prayer
Than this world dreams of.

Righteous prayer maintains clear, accurate thinking, helps in the making of wise decisions, preserves order, and brings the realization of the ever-presence of mercy, justice, unselfishness, and peace. Figuratively speaking, multitudes are already gathering around the peace table, gaining a concept of peace of which they had never even dreamed, and this better understanding will operate as a great power when the nations come together to discuss the future of the world.
