O Lord, Make Me an Instrument of Thy Peace!

 "O Lord, make me an instrument of Thy Peace!
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is discord, harmony;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light, and
Where there is sorrow, joy.
Oh 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." - Francis of Asssisi

Almost a millenium later, this prayer is still so relevant and so necessary to be prayed! Lord, help us to desire for You to put these characteristics within us! In Christ's name, Amen!
