When i think of PEACE i think of St. Francis of Assisi! He was a lover of animals and gave his life as a Servant to God. The following was written by him and is such a beautiful prayer!
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;
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.
My title: "Lord make me an instrument of your Peace"
(i have a pic of St. Francis hanging above my head. The bucket shows me being a servant of others. i dressed in what i see as the modern version of St. Francis)
