O Spirit, teach us to consider no work greater than Thy spiritual work, as no work is possible without borrowing from Thee the power to perform it.
Teach us to feel that no duty is more important than our duty to Thee, since no duty is possible without Thee.
And teach us to love Thee above everything, as we cannot live or love anything or anybody without Thy life, Thy love.
From Whispers From Eternity, 1958 edition.
