# Prayer of Saint Francis 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. - St Francis of Assisi (1181-1226) <!-- prayer-nav --> --- ← [[prayer-of-st-alphonsus-liguori-for-final-perseverance|Prayer of Saint Alphonsus Liguori for Final Perseverance]] | [[devotions-saints|😇 Devotions to the Saints]] | [[prayer-of-st-gertrude|Prayer of Saint Gertrude]] →
