"as thy anointed in the path thou hast for me
"appointed. --Save us <persname>O</persname><persname><persname> </persname></persname><persname>God</persname> of our <orgname>Salvation</orgname>, and
"gather us together, that we may give thanks unto
"thy holy name , and glory in thy praise!"--

clearly shows how the <persname>Lord</persname> was preparing
her mind for that important change in life,
which took place with her before the end of the
year. She writes, -- "To thee <persname>O heavenly
"Father</persname>, I <trait>desire to submit all my desires</trait>, and
"to thee would I commit all my concerns, cast all
"my cares upon thee, conscious that thou carest
"for me. And who so fit to choose my lot, or

"what is best for me, and is able to make all things
"work together for my good? I have often been
"brought low, but thou hast helped me, and
"when I have been looking for nothing but
"darkness, at evening time it has been light.
"But oh! after all thy <trait>patience, goodness</trait>, and
