“Make me a channel of your peaceWhere there is hatred, let me sow loveWhere there is injury, let me sow pardonWhere there is doubt, let me sow faithWhere there is despair, let me sow hopeWhere there is sadness, let me sow joyWhere there is darkness, let me bring lightFor it is in giving that we receiveIt is in pardoning that we are pardonedAnd it is in dying that we are born to eternal lifeFor this is the Law of Substitution”

“Lord, make me an instrument of your peace;where there is hatred, let me sow love;when 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.Grant that I may not so much seekto 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 [to ourselves] that we are born to eternal life.”

“Where there is hatred, let me sow love. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. Where there is sadness, joy.”

“Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace. Where these is hatred, let me sow love.”

“The law of harvest is to reap more than you sow. Sow an act, and you reap a habit. Sow a habit and you reap a character. Sow a character and you reap a destiny. ”

“The decisions we make and the way we behave are what ultimately shape our character. Charles A. Hall aptly described that process in these lines: "We sow our thoughts, and we reap our actions; we sow our actions, and we reap our habits; we sow our habits, and we reap our characters; we sow our characters, and we reap our destiny”
