"Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is discord, unity. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is error, truth. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, joy. Divine Master, grant me that I may seek not so much to be consoled, but to console. Not so much to be understood, as to understand. Not so much to be loved, but as to love. For it is in giving that we receive, it is in losing ourselves that we find ourselves. It is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life."
~Prayer of St. Francis
Lord, let this prayer be acted and sought out in my life!
