 Prayer of St. Francis

 

Lord, 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 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.

    It has been a long long time... Grandma Crawford knew all the prayers by heart and felt each and every one... The Serenity Prayer is one that has always stuck with me though I've long ago lost the necklace that had it written...

    Thanks jani!!! xoxoxo Cj

    Jani, I have always loved this prayer!! I love you new avatar.. How are you doing? How was your Halloween? I bet Gracie looked cute.. I will have to check to see if you have any pictures up yet.. Collin went out alittle bit but still isnt himself yet...It was a horrible night for the trick or treaters!! It poured really hard but most of the kids we got went out earlier so it wasnt to bad for them but the Halloween parade still went on in the rain.. Take Care Dear Twin!!!!
    xoxoxo Mary :-)
