Prayer

ॐ सांई राम

Prayer

Lord, make me an instrument of Thy Peace,

Where there is hatred, let me sow love;

Where there is injury, let me sow pardon;

Where there is doubt, let me sow faith;

Where there is despair, let me sow hope;

Where there is discord, let me sow unity;

Where there is darkness, let me sow light and

Where there is sadness, let me sow joy.

O Divine Master

Grant that I may not seek so much

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 to the little self

That we are born to eternal life.

-St Francis of Assisi

Strength

This is my prayer to thee, my Lord-

strike, strike at the root of penury in my heart.

Give me the strength lightly to bear my joys and sorrows.

Give me the strength to make my love fruitful in service.

Give me the strength never to disown the poor or bend my knees before insolent might.

Give me the strength to raise my mind high above daily trifles.

And give me the strength to surrender my strength to

Thy will with love.

-Tagore

For all that God, in mercy, sends;

For health and children, home and friends:

For comfort in the time of need

For every kindly word and deed

For happy thoughts and holy talk,

For Guidance in our daily walk-

For everything GIVE THANKS!
