If God is not sovereign, God is not God. --R.C. Sproul



A PRAYER FOR PEACE

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 it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. --Saint Francis of Assisi
