The Prayer of Saint Francis:
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; 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's in giving that we receive, and it's in pardoning that we are pardoned, and it's in dying that we are born to Eternal Life. Amen.
The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector:
9 Also He spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: 10"Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, "God, I thank You that I am not like other men--extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. 12I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.' 13And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, "God, be merciful to me a sinner!' 14I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."
NKJV Luke 18:9-14
I was thinking that it might do some good, if we robbed the cynics and took all their food. That way what they believe will have taken place, and we'll give it to everybody that has some faith. And maybe if we are surrounded in beauty, someday we will become what we see. Because anyone can start a conflict; it's harder yet to disregard it.
From Cali-forn-eeya
To the New York Isl--what'd I do?
From the liberal weiners,
To the right-wing nutjobs
This land belongs to you and me
Oh, and Dick Cheney too.
