• “I henceforth take Jesus Christ to be mine. I promise to receive Him as a husband to me. And I give myself to Him, unworthy though I am, to be His spouse. I ask of Him, in this marriage of spirit with spirit, that I may be of the same mind with Him — meek, pure, nothing in myself, and united in God’s will. And, pledged as I am to be His, I accept as part of my marriage portion, the temptations and sorrows, the crosses and the contempt which fell to Him. — Jeanne M.B. de la Mothe Guyon, Sealed with her ring.”

Teach me, O Father, how to ask Thee each moment, silently, for Thy help. If 1 fail, teach me at once to ;isk Thee to forgive me. If 1 ;!m disquieted, enable me, by Thy grace, quickly to turn to Thee. May nothing this day come between me and Thee, May I will, do, and say, just what Thou, my loving and tender Father, wiliest me to will, do, and say. Work Thy holy will in me and through me this day. Protect me, guide me, bless me, within and without, that I may do something this day for love of Thee; something which shall please Thee; and that I may, this evening, be nearer to Thee, though I see it not. nor know it. Lead me, 0 Lord, in a straight way unto Thyself, and keep me in Thy grace unto the end—Amen.
