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 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.
That's pretty close to the prayer for the deceivers which I was looking for. Thanks for bringing that up.
I've tweaked my previous attempt, to make it more imperative from God.
Oh good God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit
who sanctified the world through the Blessed Virgin Mary
Make the truth shine forth, in those who spread the darkness of lies
Give peace, to those who are full of hatred
Purify them, from rancour and deception
Deliver them, from their vainglory, the source of sin
Guide them to the comfort of fraternity with their neighbour
and in rediscovering themselves as your beloved children, oh eternal and unique God.
Amen
God did create us, yes. Now, why do you think that sin exists? What have you heard?
