"My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where
it will end. Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think that I am following your will does not mean
that I am actually doing so. But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And
I hope I have that
desire in all that I am doing I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire. And I know that if I do
this you will lead me by the right road though I may know nothing about it. Therefore will I trust you always
though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of
death. I will not fear, for you are ever with me, and you will never leave me to face my perils alone."
