Prayer of Saint Francis


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.
Amen.
This prayer brings so much comfort to me.  I used to say it every day when I was in high school.  I can't wait to share it with Baby C.  Do you have a special prayer that you share with your sweet tiny blessings?

  1. This has to be one of my favorites. I used to play an arrangement for this on the piano when I was younger.
