By St. Francis of Assisi 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 with all my soul. 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.

Relief
I don’t have a shred of Christianity in me, unfortunately, but I was happy and relieved to find a prayer (I am big on mantras and chants while meditating) that encompasses all of the changes I want to make in my life. Reading along with the narrator’s mellifluous voice was also quite relaxing in the moment.

I was raised in the Christian faith but now realize there are so many other beautiful religions too. This prayer was a nice reminder of a true and unselfish way to see the world

To console
I have turned away from God since I lost both parents. When I was a girl, this was my favourite prayer and hymn. This, and the Beatitudes are both hymns and prayers I say and sing silently to myself over and over, likeca meditation when I'm anxious and in pain and cannot sleep. Thank you for this loveliest of prayers. It has rekindled my faith.
