Patience - January 21

Patience
Thoughts on the Patient Endurance of Sorrows and Sufferings

SUSCIPE


Take, O Lord, and receive all my liberty, my memory, my understanding, and my whole will.

Thou hast given me all that I am, and all that I possess.

I surrender it all to Thee, that Thou mayest dispose of it according to Thy will.

Give me only Thy love and Thy grace; with these I will be rich enough, and will have no more to desire.
(-St. Ignatius Loyola.)

Indulgence: 300 days, once a day.
Leo XIII, May 26, 1883.
