R. How do You see me, Lord? How is my soul? Work in me, God. Open me, Spirit, to Your wisdom. I am Your servant.
Let me live to please You in all my thoughts and actions, in every desire. Let it come from love of You. Oh, how I indeed love You!
How holy is your soul? Oh, Lord, I want to be holy, but it is so easy to give in when I am wronged. I do not mean to focus on myself and how I was hurt. I just do. Let me see that Your way is the way of the cross. When I am wronged, I must love my attackers. This is, oh, so hard, but Lord, I want to be holy. Give me Your grace and love because I of myself give in. Only through You can I act like You.
How holy is your soul? Lord, sometimes things just go wrong. People get irritable. I get tired. I get impatient. I want my way in my time. Lord, and then here comes my brother, demanding his way, and I don't want to listen. Lord, help me to put myself aside and be as You would want me to be. This I cannot do on my own. Give me, Lord, Your love and grace.

The way to You, Lord, is hard for me. When I was hungry, Lord, You fed me. Please feed me Your love. Give me all I need to do this work for You. Of myself, Lord, I cannot act as You wish me to. Help me, Lord. Help me!
