prayer for peace

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.
It is in
dying, that we are born to eternal life.
