PRAYER

 

Lord, make me an instrument of Thy Peace.

Where there is hatred, let me sow love.

Where there is injury, let me sow pardon.

Where there is doubt, let me sow faith.

Where there is despair, let me sow hope.

Where there is discord, let me sow unity.’

Where there is darkness, let me sow light and

Where there is sadness, let me sow joy.

 

O Divine Master,

Grant that I may not seek so much

To be consoled as to console;

To be understood as to understand;

To be loved as to love;

For its is in giving that we receive

It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;

And it is in dying to the little self

That we are born to eternal life.

 

…. St. Francis of Assisi
