drink to do thy will O Lord. I hope my dear friend will excuse
me writing more largely on the love of our ever blessed
Jesus & of the power of his free grace in my poor heart. I
cou'd like to say much more on the subject, but am a very
poor writer, I bless god I am what I am. & may He gran?
me ever with Mary to chuse? that one thing needful whi
will help me to say with St Paul I can do all things through
Christ who strengtheneth me.--------
After 4 months Illness I was so far recoverd as to be able
to be again with my room Sisters, tho I was still so weak in
Body that for a long time I thought my time in this
World wou'd be short & heartily rejoice'd at the thoughts
thereoff. After some time seeing my expectation & desire
not granted. one morning feeling myself very weak and
impatient for the time to come when I might lay down this
tabernacle, I was speaking to our Savior about it, & it was to me
as if he stood by me, & ask'd me? Why I was so impatient, direc
tly that Verse come into my mind. which gave me comfort,
altho the time seems long to me: Even here I'm in eternity
Because I live in jesus: the impression of this I shall ne=
verforget. I grew more satidfy'd. & only wish'd that whether my
time shou'd be long or short that I might daily live in the
enjoyment of our Saviors blessings, that thereby I might be
enabled to bear evry difficulty I might meet with in my
future course. & to conclude I can say this with shame
that amidst my many faults & deficiences, our Savior has
graciously help'd me thro' & many times when I have
been at a loss which way to turn my heart has been dire=
cted to Him, where I have always found a sufficiency for
all I wanted, -- Thus for our late Sisters own accounts,
We can give her the testimony that amidst all ?
