Instrument of Peace

A desire to become an instrument of peace, spreading love, hope, and joy where there is suffering.

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.

Written by St. Francis of Assisi
