Thought for the Day

The Prayer of Saint Francis of Assissi

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. Amen


Habemus Papam

    I find it encouraging that the pope from South America is said to be adamantly opposed to Liberation Theology.

    I wish I could say I am surprised to learn that the various LibPundit were surprised to learn that Pope Francis is — gasp! — Roman Catholic.
