• Prayer of St. Francis

  This is my favorite prayer.

  ----

  Lord, make me an instrument of your peace,
  Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
  where there is injury, pardon;
  where there is doubt, faith;
  where there is despair, hope;
  where there is darkness, light;
  where there is sadness, joy;

  O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
  to be understood as to understand;
  to be loved as to love.

  For it is in giving that we receive;
  it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
  and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
