SELF-SURRENDER
"In& Thy Hands I c o m d My Spirit"
ESUS came on earth as our Master, and He wills that
3 we should learn from Him the lesson of full and en-
tire submission to the will of God. His life was one
uninterrupted act of self-abandonmeat, beginning with the
"Ecu venio" of ,the Incarnation, ' TA, I come to do Thy
will," till the final commendation or His soul on the cross.
Like Him, we must yield ourselves as living sacrifices to
God, content as for as our will goes to accept health or
illness, wealth or poverty, interior peace or the conflict
with temptation. God knows what is best, and He can
and will provide the necessary means of sanctification for
each of the souls that are so dear to Him,and this thought
should help us to cast all our care on Him. - MADAME
CECILIA, COI Cordium.
