3. WORDS FOR TODAYS MEDITATION (Philip 4.6-7)
"Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." (Philip 4.6-7)

PEACE

It is a divine gift of God,and the lord gives it to one he loves.A peaceful mind is more worthy than anything the word can give.let us pray with St francis for world peace.


A Prayer of St. Francis -Lord, make us instruments of your peace. Where there is hatred, let us sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is discord, union; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; where there is sadness, joy. Grant that we 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.
