Today is the feast of Saint Francis of Assisi.
“Lord make me an instrument of your 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.
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 its in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Amen.”
Francesco Ribalta created "Francis of Assisi With Angel Music" around 1620.
Sunday we took Tigerlily to Saint Peter's church in Pacifica. Father Jerry Foley was blessing the animals. She didn't get upset because of the barking dogs. No exotic animals this time.
