Dear Lord,

you know my weakness.
Each morning I resolve to be humble,
and in the evening
I recognize that I have often been guilty of pride.
The sight of these faults
tempts me to discouragement.
Yet I know that discouragement itself
is a form of pride.

I wish, therefore,
O my God, to build all my trust
upon You.
As You can do all things,
deign to implant in my soul
this virtue which I desire.

St. Therese of Lisieux
