God, of thy goodness, give me Thyself; for Thou art enough for me, and I can ask for nothing less that can be full honor to Thee. And if I ask anything that is less, ever Shall I be in want, for only in Thee have I all.

Prayer is the deliberate and persevering action of the soul. It is true and enduring, and full of grace. Prayer fastens the soul to God and makes it one with God's will.

In God's sight we do not fall: in our own we do not stand.

That which is impossible to thee is not impossible to me: I shall save my word in all things and I shall make all things well.

All will be well, and every kind of thing will be well.
