A Prayer attributed to St.Francis
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 but to console; to be understood but to understand; to be loved but to love. For it is in giving that we receive; it is is pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.
Oh yes Lord. Amen. I loved this prayer. It struck a string in my heart and I took a picture on my iPad. I wish I could live this way always instead of a few minutes here and there. I want this to be the prayer my heart prays. I want to blow it up big and hang it on every wall in my house. I want my children to pray it. Live it. Love it. Because when we are His this is what we are to be. His ambassadors. And this is how He loves us. And how He lived for us.

Always love this prayer. You are right the world would be a much better place if we just tried to live it.
