" Thou knowest what is expedient for my spiritual growth,’” he said in a quiet voice. “‘Let Thy will be mine, and let my will ever follow Thine. Breathe knowledge of your will into my spirit, and give me courage, humility, and good cheer to do it. Make me your pure, dutiful, and humble disciple and your obedient son. "
