‘Father, Father, help me. I pray to fulfill your will. Not my will, but your will, dear Father. Not for my glory, but for the glory of heaven. May the eternal light of your heart grant me peace and the joy, yes, the holy joy of trusting in you, dear Father, to love me, to be my strength.

O Father, I cannot live without you and I desire to walk in the holy peace of your presence each day to draw nearer to you and to always love you, dear Father. Be my strength, my hope, my light, my joy and my salvation.’
