Prayer
Father,
Thank You for each and every day You have blessed us here on earth.
Thank You for Your tender mercies.
Thank You for giving us friends and family
to share these Internet joys with.
I ask You to bless my friends, relatives and those I care deeply for
who are reading this right now.
Where there is joy,
give them continued joy,
Where there is pain,
give them your peace and mercy..
Where there is self-doubt,
release a renewed confidence.
Where there is need, fulfill their needs.
Bless their homes, families, finances,
their goings and their comings.
In Jesus' name
Amen.
yet another day of memories...

An Instrument of Peace
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 me 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.
(Attributed to St Francis of Assisi )
