A Prayer of St. Ignatius of Loyola


A Prayer of St. Ignatius of Loyola


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 rest; to labor and not to seek reward, save that of knowing that I do Thy Will, O God.
