Risk everything
Rumi
Risk everything
for love.
If you do,
you’re a truly human.
If not,
why bother?
Halfheartedly
you’ll never reach
majesty.
You’ll set out
to find God,
but then
hinder your journey
at mean-spirited
roadhouses.
Pray: Prayer for Peace
St. Francis
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace;
Where there is hatred,
let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is error, truth;
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. Amen.
