A Diary of Private Prayer

This has become a new favorite guide for my daily prayer times. Such depth and range of expression of emotions and such solid truths to cling to in prayer are gathered here. I can only share a favorite passage as a taste and a recommendation to others:
"Almighty God, who of Thine infinite wisdom hast ordained that I should live my life within these narrow bounds of time and circumstance, let me now go forth into the world with a brave and trustful heart. It has pleased Thee to withhold from me a perfect knowledge; therefore deny me not the grace of faith by which I may lay hold of things unseen. Thou hast given me little power to mold things to my own desire; therefore use Thine own omnipotence to bring Thy desires to pass within me. Thou hast willed it that through labour and pain I should walk the upward way; be Thou then my fellow traveller as I go."
