“It is not what you are
nor what you have been
that God looks at with merciful eyes
but what you desire to be.”*
What is your deepest desire?
What is your hope with God’s help?
Help me, Dearest and Sweetest Lord,
to desire you as my deepest desire.
Amen.
*Ch. 75, p. 265
“For not what thou arte, ne what thou hast ben,
beholdeth God with his merciful eighe;
bot that that thou woldest be.”*
