For
a while I believe that I have not kept a strict and constant watch
over my own heart. Hence I believe that I am in this present misery,
this darkness for I have fallen into the tempting, charming and
dangerous snares of this world. O that now when I lift my voice to
pray my sins are before me. Help me dear Lord out of my poor
condition. Let me see the beauty of your grace! O to watch my heart
and cease from straying. What a Jubilee when I will embrace Christ
and rest in him as the end of all my joy and happiness. This I know
to be true but may my life reflect it. This narrow path is hard. May
I no longer loiter on my heavenly journey – may I forever kiss
Egypt goodbye!
