Friends, this is a great little prayer for those who are discerning...
Dearest Jesus, teach me to be generous;
teach me to love and serve you as you deserve;
to give and not to count the cost;
to fight and not to heed the wounds;
to toil and not to seek for rest;
to labour and to look for no reward,
save that of knowing that I do your holy will.
- St Ignatius.
thank you , Antony!
ReplyDeletehere is what i like to say to my friends who leave (Irish Blessing):
May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of his hand.
