Do any prayers make you feel this way?
St. Ignatius' Prayer for Generosity
Lord, teach me to be generous.
Teach me to 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 labor and not to ask for reward,
save that of knowing that I do your will.
I would so love to have a one-to-one with Ignatius!
Wow...to give and not count the cost!!! So hard...such amazing words....
ReplyDeleteThese words have the same impact on me as the St francis of Assisi Prayer.....
Lord grant that I may never seek to be consoled as much as to console!!!!!!
