Lord make me an instrument of your peace. where ther ishatred 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; Lord, may I not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love. Because it is in giving that we receive, in pardoning that we are pardoned. Amen.
Michelle, I often refer to this prayer. I rarely give it the full go like you've done here but I am known (to me) to start my day with "Lord, let me be an instrument of thy peace" which isn't exactly what you have here but it's what's in my heart and I thought I'd share that true, exact prayer as I work with it - often. I love this. Thank you!
