A SIMPLE PRAYER


                                                          ST: FRANCIS OF ASSISI 


                       
                                A Simple Prayer
                
                     Lord make me an instrument
                                of thy 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.


                                                    -St. Francis of Assisi
