Peace through out the Holidays

"This morning, I am grateful for my partner, mother and spiritual community. That prayer of Peace continues to be relevant as our brothers, sisters and those persons whom simply do not like labels throughout the world experience conflicts; in the Middle East and Ukraine. Even though after so many natural disasters in the United States this year, or need are great let’s continue to direct the power of prayer to comfort & protect aide our 'extended world' family for we all are connected. My mantra this day is Peace, love and healing”. - A. T. (Yoda) Brooks

Peace Prayer of St Francis

Peace Prayer of St 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.
Where there is sadness, joy. 

Where there is pain, healing.

I humbly pray in the name of Jesus
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 accepting Jeus Christ that we are reborn into new life.

Amen.
