Yesterday was the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi. A Feast Day in the last days of harvest to celebrate a kindly Saint and one who appreciated that we measure our humanity by how we care for our beloved creatures. So, here's his prayer to mark the days of Hailee's gestation!A Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
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.
