my birthday struck me very much on
looking at them sometime before. The
daily word was "In the Lord shall all
the seed of Israel be justified and shall <add>glory</add>"
45th of Isaiah & 25th verse, and the doctrinal
text was, the second of Acts & the latter part
of the 47th verse "And the Lord added to
the church daily such as should be saved."
I felt to hope that these texts had a reference
to some that were very near & dear to me, who
were not added to any <sic>christian</sic> church,
and over whom my heart had often yearned.
I never once thought of them in connection
with myself, I thought I was added to the
church, and of the real meaning of the
daily word I had at that time very little
knowledge, --oh how possible it is to deceive
ourselves and others. --On the morning of my
birthday, I found three verses on my table
which had been drawn and placed there
by a very dear and worthy sister, as was
her custom, the three were very striking, but
the text of one was loves "Lovest thou me"
[page break]
to it which was added the verse
<gap> </gap>Lovest thou me I hear the Saviour say,
Would that my heart had power to
answer yea: <gap></gap>
Thou knowest all things, Lord in heaven above
And earth beneath, thou knowest that I love
But 'tis not so in word, in deed, in thought
I do not cannot love thee as I ought,
Thy love must give that power, thy love alone
On reading the last line <add>with clasped hands</add> I exclaimed, oh
my beloved Saviour that is the very thing
why <add>didst</add> thou not show me that before. --it is
indeed thy love that must give me power
to love thee in return, there is indeed "nothing
worthy of thee but thine own Oh do thou
grant that "with the love wherewith thou
lovest me <gap></gap>
Reflected on thyself I would <add>may</add> love thee --
My dear Saviour had that instant drawn
me to himself -- but when he put his holy
spirit into my heart, oh the sink of iniquity
I saw there "sin did indeed revive and
I died" Born--7th ch = 9th verse - so heavy was the
