VOLUME 3
O Lord, bless to me this dispensation! Cause me to live in a more practical sense of the shortness and uncertainty of all human things; and oh bring my soul, more effectually than ever hitherto, to God in Christ, and give me a large measure of Thy Spirit. May I be enabled to live by faith above the world, looking for a better country [1], with my heart supremely set on it. O Lord, I know too well my own weakness, but Thou canst strengthen the weakest, and hast promised that Thou wilt, if we earnestly pray to Thee. Lord, be with me, and strengthen me. Enable me to maintain a closer walk with Thee; and while I live a life of faith and hope, having my affections set on things above [2], may I discharge the duties of my station, so as to let my light shine before men [3], and adorn the doctrine of God my Saviour in all things [4]. Amen, and Amen.
