"Be not wise in thine own eyes;

fear the Lord,

and depart from evil."

~ Proverbs 3:7 ~

"Lord I know not what to ask of Thee; 

Thou knowest what I need;

Thou lovest me better than I know how to love myself.

O Father, give to Thy child that which he himself knows not how to ask. 

I dare not ask either for crosses or for consolations; 

I simply present myself before Thee. 

I open my heart to Thee.

Behold my needs which I know not myself; 

see and do according to Thy tender mercy...

~ Francois de Salginac de la Mothe-Fenelon ~
