A Wedding Reading: The Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi

Lord, make us instruments of your peace.

Where there is hatred, let us sow love.

Where there is injury, pardon.

Where there is discord, union.

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 we 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.

 

May your holiday and wedding day be filled with peace and love!

Love & Soul Always, Kawania
