O God, my God, I am all weakness, but Thou art my Strength; I am ever anew bowed down by any trial, but Tliou canst and wiliest to lift me up. Let me not fail, O God my Strength; let me not be discouraged, O God, my Hope. Draw me each day, if it be but a little nenrer unto Thee; make me, each day, if it be but a little less unlike Thee; let me do or bear each day something, for love of Thee, whereby I may be titter for Thee. Let no day pass without my having done something pleasing unio Thee, Thus alone would I live, that I may live more unto Thee; thus would I die. longing to love Thee more—Amen.

  • “How very narrow is the gate that leads to a life in God! (Mt 7:14) How little one must be to pass through it, it being nothing else but death to self! But when we have passed through it, what enlargement do we find! David said, ‘He brought me forth also in a large place’ (Ps. 18:19). And it was through humiliation and abasement that he was brought there.” – from Madame Guyon’s autobiography Ch. 22
