In hard times like the present, where by many winds of war blow, everyone feels the need for peace. Even St. Francis of Assisi, he felt a strong desire for peace and for this he composed a simple prayer that hides a great power in the pursuit of peace. Let us join together for this prayer and riflettiamone on its deeper meaning:
Oh, Lord,
ago 'me the instrument of your peace;
There, where is hatred let me sow love.
There, where is the offense let me sow pardon.
There, where there is discord, let me sow union.
There, where is the doubt that I may bring faith.
There, where is the error that I may bring truth.
There, where is the despair that I may bring hope.
There, where is sadness, let me sow joy. There, where there is darkness let me bring light.
Oh Master,
ago 'I do not so much seek to be consoled but to console.
to be understood but to understand.
To be loved but to love.
Since:
is in giving that we receive,
is in pardoning that we obtain the pardon,
and is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
ago 'me the instrument of your peace;
There, where is hatred let me sow love.
There, where is the offense let me sow pardon.
There, where there is discord, let me sow union.
There, where is the doubt that I may bring faith.
There, where is the error that I may bring truth.
There, where is the despair that I may bring hope.
There, where is sadness, let me sow joy. There, where there is darkness let me bring light.
Oh Master,
ago 'I do not so much seek to be consoled but to console.
to be understood but to understand.
To be loved but to love.
Since:
is in giving that we receive,
is in pardoning that we obtain the pardon,
and is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
1. "Oh, Lord, 'for me the instrument of your peace."
preaching will not solve anything and asking for peace to men if we did not first converted into a Peace Corps.
2. "There, where is hatred let me sow love."
We must be active heralds of Divine Love, stopping hatred by our very presence imbued with love.
3. "There, where is the offense let me sow pardon."
We must not offend nor in the thoughts, feelings or actions. Let's do it now!! Now forgive and pardon to all this we expand the fires of hatred that we encounter in our daily life.
4. "There, where is discord, let me sow union."
Achieving unity in light of the fact that we are all One in the Spirit of Christ, he must be our constant attitude in the face of discord. When we see discussions, arguments, inharmonies, we should not mix with vibrations so low, but at that embody the EU.
5. "There, where is the doubt that I may bring faith."
doubt and because of the fear, the fear and insecurity and this is the open door through which sinister forces penetrate. FAITH is within us, because our Internal Christ has complete faith in us and we need within us which are recognizable. Faith can be represented by the Archangel Michael with his sword that defeats the doubt that is the devil.
6. "There, where is the error that I may bring truth."
The error is ignorance and ignorance is the cause of all evils and the only antidote is the truth and this is achieved only through wisdom. We study the Truth, to be bearers of light for humanity.
7. "There, where is the despair that I may bring hope."
convert them into a body of Hope a need for our fellow citizens require to see the light in the darkness of their despair.
8. "There, where is sadness, let me bring joy."
Man mystic must be the bearer of joy to God, able to bring a smile to the lips more bitter because affected by imperfect human creations, sing, laugh, run happy by spreading the happiness that produces the knowledge that the Christ lives in our hearts palpitating.
9. "There, where there is darkness let me bring light."
Simo a torch of spiritual light from the Hill of human mole, by dispelling the darkness ignorance, vulgarity, hate, lies, irony and jealousy. "I am the Light of the World."
10. "Oh Master, 'I do not look much."
If we want to be real servants of God we should not expect anything at all renunciates become true, but not giving material objects, which is relatively easy, but it is a renunciation of inner tube can not find.
11. "On be consoled but to console."
remember that humanity confused, used to the fires in search of human spiritual consolation, and is a Christian duty to offer help without asking anything in return.
12. "To be included, but to understand."
We understand many times without finding it, because it's best to turn the other cheek and give others the understanding that there can give.
13. "To be loved but to love."
Humanity runs desperately from side to side, from street to street, from country to country, looking for love in vain if no one is capable of giving love, no one can receive, then ... STOP where you are and begin to give love. Love to all that you're watching, animals, flowers, stones, to co-workers, family, water, food, to those who think they hate you. Love the city, the country where you live, to live or where you will live. To the extent that we love, receive love!
14. "Because it is giving that we receive."
The Law of Cause and Effect is that everything you give to others, you will receive it in the light of love and commitment with which they have given.
15. 'E' in pardoning that we obtain forgiveness. "
We can not demand justice if we can not forgive. Forgive everything, absolutely all the evil that was done, no matter of pride that is in us.
16. "And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life."
We have to die every day we have the personal desire to be loved, understood and comforted. Putting to death the life enclosed in darkness, sadness, strife, despair, horror, doubt, hurt, hate ... we will live to be only an instrument of God's peace, it will rise to eternal life of forgiveness, love, understanding and comfort, being light, joy and divine instrument of Peace.
