“God, 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 seek so much 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 (to our small sense of self-identity) that we are born to eternal life.

Attributed to Saint Francis of Assisi

“Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me.”
