Hello and welcome.

I would like to share with you the prayer of St.

Francis.

This prayer will help us move from the energy of the ego which is centered in what can I get to the energy of the divine self which is anchored in how can I serve.

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.

And 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.

Amen.

Thank you.

When I pray this prayer every morning, I realized I am more giving, loving, and less likely to assume negative intent. I am less ego and more self.

The path of selfless service is a true release. At times it may be difficult to relocate through the fog of the mind’s preoccupation with providing and caring for our needs yet these are always covered by our Creator. We may become free again when we remember.
