"Dearest Lord, teach me to be generous.
Teach me to serve Thee as Thou deservest;
To give and not to count the cost;
To fight and not to heed the wounds;
To toil and not to seek for reward,
Save that of knowing that
I do Thy will, O God."
-- St. Ignatius of Loyola

Wonderful thoughts in this prayer. Thank you for sharing.
Blessings Carrie...that we all could pray as selflessly as this Saint...to be taught of the Lord!
How wonderful the thoughts and prayer! Thank you for sharing a prayer that teaches such valuable lessons: to give (not to count the cost); to fight (not to heed the wounds); to toil (not to seek for reward)...I truly want to be in His will! Enjoy a Spiritual Sunday!
