Prayer of St. Francis: Make me a channel of your peace



Lord, make us instruments of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let us sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is discord, union;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.
Grant that we 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.

By: St. Francis of Assisi

Prayer for Holiness: Breathe in us that our thoughts may all be holy



Loving God, breathe in us that our thoughts may all be holy.  Strengthen us to defend all that is holy.  Guard us that we may always be holy.  Amen.
