hope



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 thre is darkness, light; 
Where there is sadness, joy. 
O' Divine Master, grant that I may seek 
not so much to be consoled as to console; 
to be understood as to understand; 
to be loved as to love; 
for it is giving that we receive; 
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; 
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life. 
Amen

Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi



"The day the Lord created hope was probably the same day He created Spring." 

Bern Williams
