Language of Flowers Selections - "OLIVE: PEACE"
Susan Loy of Literary Calligraphy in Moneta, VA, joins text from literary classics or Biblical passages with delicate watercolor images and creates a unique bond between fine art and literature.
Tiny olive leaves and fruit weave about this beloved prayer to peace and joy; the text surrounds a noble sprig of olive, meaning peace.
The text is the first stanza of the Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi: "Lord, make me an instrument of Thy 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; and where there is a sadness, joy..."
St. Francis of Assisi founded the Franciscan order in 1208, an order devoted to living a life of joy in strict poverty and service to the poor.
