“Therefore I, a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling you have received, for you have been called by God, and on account of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, which is your spiritual service of worship.”

“O Jesus, I have promised, to serve Thee to the end; be Thou forever near me, my Master and my Friend; I shall not fear the battle, if Thou art by my side, nor wander from the pathway, if Thou wilt be my Guide. O, Jesus, Thou hast promised, to all who follow Thee, that where Thou art in glory, there shall Thy servant be; and Jesus, I have promised, to serve Thee to the end; oh, give me grace to follow, my Master and my Friend.”
