You have only to close your eyes for a moment, examine yourself, and softly murmur, "Lord, help me!"
Can you not hear God's Voice speaking to you? What! when He says: Bear this, I am here to aid thee; you will refuse?
He says: Continue another half-hour the work that wearies thee; and you would stop?
He says: Do not that; and you do it?
He says: Let us tread together the path of obedience; and you answer: No?

SELF-RENUNCIATION
Do not be afraid of that word Renunciation. To you, perhaps, it only means, weariness, restraint, ennui.
But it means also, love, perfection, sanctification.
