Lord, make me an instrument of Thy 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.
Divine Master,
Grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled

Perseverance
When all the world is looming dark
And things seem not so clear,
When shadows seem to hover ’round

C.S. Lewis in "Mere Christianity" said about Jesus, “A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic—on the level with a man who says he is a poached egg—or he would be the devil of hell. You must take your choice.
