Prayer of St. Francis - An addition to my 'religious' series.

PRAYER OF SAINT (ST.) FRANCIS OF ASSISI

Penned in my FANCY Writing! 

This is one of the most beautiful prayers I have ever read

To read about the Celtic Cross refer to February 12, 2014 Entry 

I was surfing the web the other day and came across some beautifully written prayers.  This one really stood out to me.  The pictures here are not the greatest quality but I wanted to show you an idea that I came up with for an old antique frame that I inherited from my Grandfather's estate.  I found the frame in his attic and thought it was beautiful, complete with all the original dust!!  

I do not know what these little 'white' things are, maybe sea shells?? 

The frame is only about 6 or 7" and it's a complete square.  I have it hanging upstairs (currently without any glass) beside  my bedside table.  I really like this.  I love the message.  

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; 

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. 

A closeup that is actually CLEAR 

I hope that you enjoy this post.  I am going to add another picture to this series very soon.  I want to do some additional prayers.  Any suggestions would be appreciated!! 

Enjoy.
