make me a chan­nel of Your 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.
where there is sor­row, joy.

o 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.

…thanks for the reminder on how to live, st. francis.
