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.
~ prayer attributed to St. Francis of Assissi
This is my grown-up Thanksgiving Wish. How about you?

/ December 1, 2013Thank you, Tina. I have to give credit to my son for the candle one. I thought it was excellent, taken on Thanksgiving Day. I may use it for the light challenge.
